Is it possible to install a boiler on an inside wall and then run the flue through a false/dropped ceiling? Is there a maximum length that the flue pipe work can run before it vents to the outside? Thanks

You ask a lot of questions. May I ask you one? Have you ever invested a significant amount of money in a development project?

When did I say that I didn't believe them? That's a fair jump from what I actually said which was "I like to gather my own information as well" If the rest of your "philosophy" is based on that misinterpretation and subsequent misrepresentation then no wonder it's flawed.

One line philosophies like that may read well on forums, but in real life they are useless and irrelevant.

Hi Yes, I have employed planning consultants but always like to gather my own information as well. Thanks

Hi If I wanted to extend to allow more space given it's a commercial premises I understand that it will need PP. So which way around would you do things? 1) Apply for PP for the extension and once that is granted then apply for change of use based on the proposed increased foot print? 2) Or...

Hi Woody I understand that PD when in respect to residential extensions means no permission needs to be sought. However my (limited) understanding of PD with respect to change of use is that it's a different kettle of fish. The Planning Portal says that you can have a change of use from betting...

Good morning I'm looking at trying to use PD rights to change the use of a betting shop to a flat. Probably won't get it but as the chance of finding a new commercial tenant in a tertiary parade given the current climate is highly unlikely it's worth a punt. It's 65 m2 internally so a 2 bed...

Hi I have bought some 180x60 gym mats and want to secure them to the floor to form a 'continuous' area. Exercise will involve movements that put sheer forces on mats ie burpees, mountain climbers etc. Originally I thought of double sided tape but am now thinking a contact adhesive would be more...

Perfect, that's what I meant. The power switch will always remain on as, like you, I want the Ring on at all times. I'll just turn the hive on/off via from my phone/device. Have a nice weekend

Your last point is what I need clarification on. The hive light would stay powered on at all time from the switch. I would turn it on and off via a phone/ipad etc. Are you saying that if the power switch remains on but I turn the hive off from a device then it will also kill power to the Ring...

Hi My plan is to keep the hive bulb. The light that the hive bulb is in is one we keep on in the evenings as it looks nice and also allows the door number to be visible etc The Ring floodlight cam is obviously a high intensity security light so you wouldn't want that on for hours at a time...

Hi I have an external light run on an existing cable. I have replaced the bulb in the light with hive smart bulb. As a result I leave those light switched on from the switch and turn the bulb on and off via my smartphone I want to install a Ring floodlight cam. My plan was to use the same wire...

Hi 1) Can you please explain what you mean by; The block will have to be lifted to relay, Where/what is the relay? 2) By the statement below do you mean the vent pipe needs to be removed? At the level I can see the vent pipe in the manhole it looks to be a couple of feet deep. Does that mean...

This sounds about right unfortunately. I was present when the insurance company's agent did the CCTV. The remainder of the system all functions fine. The vent pipe in question wasn't cctv'ed for the reason that jetting it might cause further damage, this sort of made sense. I can't mess around...

Thank you very much. Would you say that this air inlet pipe is an integral part of my system or redundant? As mentioned, the insurance company is declining the claim on the basis that the pipe is 'redundant'. Much appreciated.

Thanks, will pick up a set tomorrow and report back

Unfortunately I don't have the tools to lift the manhole cover.... I could buy some if I can figure out which size I need!

Sorry Ian, not sure if that question is directed at me and I'm not sure I've understood it. This is the pipe that is under discussion.... Thanks

Hi Nige I've googled interceptor pipe and done some reading. If it is indeed an interceptor pipe would that make it an integral part of my sewage system as opposed to 'redundant' as the insurers are claiming? Thank you
