    Radiator panels and grill

    I'm not sure if anyone will be able to help. I am decorating my bathroom and I want to remove the radiator panels and grill to clean and paint the visible area under the top grill as it is filthy!! I can not for the life of me work out how to get them off. They appear to be clipped to one...

    4 hole taps

    Thank you! :D How does the drip tray work? Does it just evaporate like a fridge drip tray? Or do you have to empty it? I guess that that design I was looking at is better than some in that case, as the shower is angled over bath, where as many seemed to be straight up

    4 hole taps

    Right...this will seem like SUCH a dumb question :oops: Please could someone explain a bit more about 4 hole bath mixers for me? Have looked around on the internet and they seem like a good idea. But there are just a few things I'm not sure of: 1. Where does the shower hose go? Does it...

    Garage door jammed shut

    I really hope someone can help - my garage door is jammed shut. Its a single piece up and over door with two bars which go from the handle to each top corner. When you turn the handle the latch opens on one corner but not the other. I'm fairly sure the problem has been caused by "%@*&^...

    Unstable system?

    Right - so far so good 24 hours and no freezing or crashing. What it has done though which it did last time and I forgot to mention; is that sometimes after energy saver switches the monitor off when you leave the computer, the screen divides in half and flips round so that the START for the...

    Unstable system?

    Sorry - just read the posts through again; how could I tell if system was stable in safe mode? Does this just mean that it doesnt crash. This has been a fairly random problem, it could go for days without happening would I have to use it in safe mode for ages or is there some kind of system...

    Unstable system?

    Hi thanks for all the tips, I've reformatted again as I remembered that my broadband installer had a bit of an episode whilst trying to install internet explorer 5.5 (ie I told it not to but it did it anyway then crashed trying) I thought this might have caused a problem even after upgrading to...

    Tap dribbling

    Just the hot, as i said the cold is fine but when you turn the tap for hot it just dribbles; both out of the actual tap and the shower head

    Tap dribbling

    Also there is no @*%$£ isolator thing on the pipe below the taps. Any solution that doesn't involve draining the whole system gratefully received.

    Tap dribbling

    I did search for this but I'm afraid I didn't understand the reply posts. I have an Armitage Shanks shower mixer tap on the bath. Its always worked fine until today when for some reason it has slowed to a dribble. The cold is fine and all the other hot taps in the house are working fine...
