Hi Frank, The garage is blocks and plaster on the outside with an asbestos roof.. I don't remember seeing it dripping anywhere but that's not to say it didn't over night and I looked in the day when it had stopped..
I will check the soil hight and if necessary dig it down..
What surface...
My house was built in the 50s and it looks like there is no damp proofing in the garage because in the winter the floor is very damp to the point of being wet.. It looks like previous owners have tried to stick down some felt to the floor but this has pretty much fallen apart and just a few bits...
Hi all,
Probably be asked a million times but I couldn't find the exact situation and answer..
I have just had a section of the drive way widened (tar) and have concrete edging.. There is about an 8-10 inch strip of soil between the concrete driveway edging and the fence which is about 5 -...

Sounds like a remote sensor is what I need.. Thanks..
Are there any battery operated electronic valve controllers that have something like a wireless room stat (also battery operated) that can be put on the wall in the middle of the room somewhere that can control the rad?
TRV is an "EPH Controls EN215".. At least thats what it says on the box.. Looks like this.. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31iV5%2Bka0cL._SX300_.jpg
What I mean is the TRV is being "heated up" by the rad and so is shutting down before the room has reached temperature.. In other words the vertical bars of the rad are radiating in all directions including towards the TRV..
As for sizing according to the online calulators I need 6534BTU and...
Hi,
I have been trying to work out why the lounge didn't seem to warm up very well even though the rad is 2300w.. The rad is a vertical Reina Neva - http://www.screwfix.com/p/reina-neva-double-panel-vertical-designer-radiator-white-1800x413mm-7952btu/53392
What I have just found out is...
Not according to many sources on the internet that I have looked at..
Delta is calculated by determining the mean/average radiator temperature so in my two examples this would be..
(70C + 50C) / 2 = 60C average radiator temperature
or
(65C + 55C) / 2 = 60C average radiator temperature...
So in recent weeks I have been learning quite a bit and getting my new heating system setup right thanks to the helpful experts on this forum.. I have a question of the "Delta" and its effect on the heating ability of the system..
So as I understand it the Delta is calculated as..
(flow...
Yes, a new on and I have all the instructions.. I will see how it behaves this evening and then see if increasing the minimum on time is what's needed..
I decided to leave optimisation off for now and have set the program to be exactly the same as my previous stat so I can try and gauge any...
The TPI functionality in the thermostat is what is causing the boiler to fire for shooter periods. So this is as designed.
From the Honeywell site.
A TPI room thermostat works by continuously measuring the room temperature and calculating a difference between measured and target...
Fitted a Honeywell CM927 today and its switching on and off as it should to maintain the temperature but the boiler doesn't start burning immediately and by the time it starts it turns off again..
Boiler is a Worcester Bosch 32 CDI compact..
Is there a setting either on the stat to not...
