    Portable air conditioning units.

    Have you thought about or tried one of the oscilating tower fans. They are pretty quiet and we never had a problem sleeping with them.

    Electric shower only produces scolding hot or ice cold in hotter months. Any idea what I can do to fix this or is this normal?

    He only meausured 1 litre of water a couple of times. I don't think that is enough to rule out whether it varies or not. According to the instructions there are 2 elements in the tank for high and low and the temp is varied for each element by the flow rate which is cintrolled by the stabiliser...

    Summerhouse

    Personally I don't think that sounds to be such a good idea. You may have problems with it taking the weight and won't have access to maintain the decking in the future

    Electric shower only produces scolding hot or ice cold in hotter months. Any idea what I can do to fix this or is this normal?

    It still seems like the problem is the flow rate either into or out of the shower unit. See these instructions about flow rate and maintenance. https://www.bristan.com/product-files/576763/fitting-instructions.pdf perhaps you just need to clean both filters If you can achieve the required input...

    You made your last post while I was typing Did you fill the jug with the shower head attached or removed. I'm not a plumber but it would take about 5 seconds max. to fill a 1litre jug from any of our taps. What are the results if you do the same test from a cold tap in the bathroom

    Electric shower only produces scolding hot or ice cold in hotter months. Any idea what I can do to fix this or is this normal?

    He doesn't mention adjusting settings because he is talking about the flow rate either not being high enough or varying during use which is what you are experiencing. So yes the valves could be the problem but do the basics first the same as endecotp says. But check your stopcock is fully open...

    Applying final Bona Mega coat to wood floor using a Bona Roller - How to get a smooth finish?

    So is it a foam roller or woolen one. Perhaps a different one might be worth trying. Might be better asking in the painting section

    Single storey side extension pipework

    A bend with a nice radius and no joints will be better than elbows. Or do you mean the joist is against the wall and in the way of pipes turning upward.

    If it's ok with a brush could it be that you are spreading it too thinly

    Shower valve Axor hansgrohe

    I would not have thought so as it does not show a lip of any kind on the sleeve. Unless it is tapered which I doubt. Just looks like limescale around where the sleeve passes through the plate so perhaps that is what is holding it. The Allen key and hole in diags 1 & 6 are a bit confusing though...
