No, it has 6 buttons on the front - light on and off then fan speed buttons 0-3

My only method of contact is via the solicitors (they have some issues with the estate agents so didnt want to give a forwarding address). We did initially ask them and their response was that all the applicances were plugged in in the cupboards. I'm not sure they were too handy though, half...

It does but its currently sealed in... the vendors unplugged all the other items. I've tried to look up the vertical section by removing the filter and cannot see anything plug like but neither where the wiring exits the chimley. We will indeed fix the wiring when we replace the kitchen but...

The only FCU type thing in the kitchen is for the cooker itself (a dual fuel affair). All the other appliances are going into surface mounted regular plug sockets (with the surfaces all being the walls of the cabinates). To date we don't have any unexplained sockets/switches etc but both the...

So bought our first home and our mid term intent is to replace the kitchen but slightly concerned with the wiring in the kitchen at the moment. The flat was built in 2002 and the kitchen put in in 2014. The washing machine and dishwasher flank the sink and are plugged into a double gang socket...

Synthetics or not will depend on if you are washing synthetic or natural fibre clothes. In practice it spins slower in the drying cycle but it may vary if they actually increase the duration to balance it out. As others have said, google your make/model of washer and it'll come up with the...

According to the Nest checker it does work and according to the Nest Pro it should too - they dont maintain a list of models that dont support it (or at least not publically). Hive explicitly list it as not comptable though. Nest have said they'll instruct their pro to remove it/reinstate the...

We have the above boiler and have tried to fit a Nest thermo via a "pro" (confirmed gas safe engineer). In short, the only way to make it work properly without the pump going 24/7 is by removing the timer/display module from the boiler. I did speak to Worcester who simply said the boiler isnt...

If you are only going to be projecting a face on a pumpkin or such then you may not need to correct for the shape. Maybe have a look at the likes of https://atmosfx.com/pages/prop-mode who do videos for projecting onto a manakin to look like ghosts etc.

This has nothing to do with Apple and everything to do with Sky. Both Apple and Google allow app developers to choose if they allow mirroring/casting etc to another screen. Obviously most do but Sky, and Channel 4, both used to block this. That said, there are various online posts saying that...

A little surprised you can get a straight one through but not a right angle one. Why not remove the moulded plug so you can pass the cable through and then put a standard plug on (with appropriate fuse) once the wire is in the wall? Our TV's powercord is fixed and the plug cannot be removed as...

If the insurers paid out then its no longer the victim's tools but the insurers if they are ever recovered. That aside, all that validates is that the insurer decided that the items were stolen, it doesnt validate that the particular items the police have recovered are theirs... imagine the...

It came with the flat so cannot say its age for certain. The kitchen itself I know was fitted in 2013/2014 as Wren happily told me the name and date of who/when it was bought from them (which was the owner before those we bought from) but dont know if it is contemporary/predates/postdates...

I assumed that the alarm was going off simply as an anti-tamper as its detecting the loss of power as a possible attempt to stop it triggering. Is it likely to be an expensive fix? What I read on the RCD being triggered it suggests is a water leak somewhere but therefore seems surprising to me...

We've moved into a new place which came with an integrated Smeg washer/dryer. After first struggling to find the power switch for it (its on a socket under the sink thats attached to the cabinate carcase) it then sprang into life. When doing a washing cycle it works fine. When doing a drying...
