    Double Socket Warm to Touch

    I have loads of LAP USB sockets in my house, been working fine for at least 10 years. For charging purposes they are far from obsolete.

    Lost PC, what was on the hard drive?

    I would treat all data you have on it as compromised and change passwords etc ASAP. On your new PC I would suggest using something like KeePass

    26th Jan law changes?

    Sounds BS to me; source? What / who defines the exact dates of 'during the winter'?

    ICOS24 condensate trap plastic nut corroded

    Probably 20 years, think it’s the same boiler from when the house was first built

    ICOS24 condensate trap plastic nut corroded

    Noticed my ICOS24 boiler was dripping from the rear right area of the lower plate a few days ago. Isolated the power and called British Gas in to take a look. The engineer found the issue, a corroded plastic nut that holds the condensate drain rubber hose to the S-trap. I was amazed as to why...

    Damp hot tub room

    Pics would be good but sounds like a non-starter. I would pull the lot down. How bad we the bits you can't see likely to be?,

    Outdoor taps in winter, how do you protect yours?

    In the three properties i have lived in over the last 20 years all have had outside taps on the rear wall and i have never bothered to turn off water or insulate them over the winter. They have never caused me an issue (yet)

    Converting push fit to glued?

    As you say, UV not an issue when it’s all buried in floorboards. I hear similar comments regarding speedfit/etc fittings for central heating. Used for 15ish years in all three of my houses I’ve owned and never had a problem.

    Converting push fit to glued?

    If push fit is that crap, why the hell is it sold? I did my bathroom sink and shower waste with push fit a few years back and it has been fine so far…
