Thanks. Will search for it.

I have a door with a metal strip inserted into the sill. There is a rebate on the bottom of the door and this should seal against the upstanding metal strip but it doesn't! Can anyone suggest a robust and hopefully adhesive type seal that I can apply to either the door or the metal strip...

Clear and understood. Thanks

Ericmark's solution looks interesting. Do I assume the Energenie communicates with the IFTTT app? The treatment plant is connected to the main supply with a wired spur. Could I replace the spur unit with a 13amp socket and plug the water treatment unit in using the Energenie or would that not...

Ummmmh. 'Knock up a simple manometer...' The solutions all sound fascinating and I've got time on my hands at the moment but I'm just a DIYer with no electrical training. I was really hoping for a simple plug in device but that doesn't seem possible. I'll mull over the suggestions and try to...

Should have mentioned that there's a sacrificial pin that breaks in the event either of the air pump diaphragms break. The pump then stops. On the occasion this happened recently the circuit was tripped but whether that would always happen I don't know.

Thanks for the feedback - I think! The treatment plant has an air pump not a water pump so perhaps some of the solutions may not be effective? I had thought of using some sort of current monitor but I guess that would need a separate cable which is not practicable. Think I'll just have to...

I have a water treatment plant in my garden that, in winter and bad weather, I do not monitor as frequently as I probably should. The pump should run constantly 24/7. The unit is isolated by a fused spur which, currently, does not have an led but I am going to replace it with one that does. If...

Yes, it's still possible to move around in clear sight of the sensor so should be OK.

Ummmmh. Haven't checked that! Good thinking.;)

Thanks. I can hang the cupboard below the sensor and retain full view of it. Regards

I have an Accenta system with room sensors in the top corners of many rooms. I wish to hang a corner cupboard in the same corner as a sensor. Can I locate it immediately below the sensor or do I need to permanently remove the sensor and if so how do I do that?

All Thanks for your replies. Attached are photos of the keypad and PCB. Although I said the noise disturbs me, actually it's my wife, I'm a bit hard of hearing so I haven't heard the noise but my wife and guests have. I did sit up 'til midnight one night but I couldn't hear the sound and...

The alarm was professionally fitted 13 years ago and has worked without fault until approx 12 months ago since when at precisely midnight every night the alarm beeps about 10 times. I have replaced the battery and I have replaced what I thought was a faulty keypad but neither have cured the...

It's a built in microwave oven so it slides into the kitchen cabinet housing. I think similar ovens are secured with screws around the front panel which can be accessed once the oven door is opened but on this unit there are no visible screws. There is a stainless steel surround which may...

I need to replace the motor in my EMW 7505.0 built in oven but I cannot see where the retaining screws are located. I assume they are behind the stainless steel trim? If so does anyone know how to remove the trim i.e. do I just prise it off? Any guidance appreciated.

We have a waste treatment plant that is working fine and hasn't been de-sludged in ten years. There is of course sludge in one chamber and cleaned water in the other which discharges as it should. Do I need to get the sludge pumped out regularly or will it gradually be digested and just...

I have a 3 year old VADO Elements basin mixer tap that requires a new C-206-LTC cartridge. This doesn't seem to be a reasonable life? A universal cartridge is approx. £7.00 but a VADO cartridge is £20.00 plus postage. Both cartridges are of similar construction and profile so how can their...

Been away for a couple of days. System seems to have sorted itself since several on/offs of the stat. Can't explain it but who cares? Thanks for all contributions.

Don't think there's another m/v. Will look into it again tomorrow as I'm busy today. Thanks for all help so far.
