Just bought one off ebay...cheap to fit in in laws conservatory (as standard PIR keeps false alarming), I have the 8IR110's in my own house and have no problems with these in my conservatory - that's what I understand about the DT's as they need both signals to alarm, hence why I got the...

I've just had Bi folds fitted with a sill. I had the full weather rated threashold and whilst its a little higher (25mm step above floorboards inside) I'm going got raise the floor inside a little, since i'll be ripping the current floor out. As previous comment, I was advised to have the...

Mmmm, something I forgot to mention is I'll be destroying the currently floor boards (old chipboard sheets), so as I'm laying a new floor is there a material I could use that provides any additional insulating properties? thanks

Saw the thumbs down and I've seen a lot of sarcastic responses on other threads, so apologies but I wasn't sure..... So no air gap between floorboard and insulation, thanks I'll do a search on other threads

Not here for any confrontation or string of abuse.....but perhaps I'm incorrect but a response ending .....'(n)' = sarcasm?....helpful....thanks for your input

Have a mid 80's detached with suspended floors with air bricks. Currently no carpets and gaps etc. at skirting boards, so plenty of draft opportunities. The ground floor is split over two levels with three rooms open plan so a big area to heat. I want to put in some insulation between the...

thanks, well I'll go method 2 since the fans obviously in the loft space and means I can easily connect to the lighting circuit. As the fan is in the loft I had intended to put the isolator up there too, in the 'outside' zone, or does the isolator have to be 'easily' accessible - most modern...

Hello, About to order this fan, but the wiring diagram shows a 2 pole fan isolator. Can I use a 3 pole as per the alternative wiring diagram? From lighting circuit, take L&N through a 3 amp FCU to the isolator.... I will put a new pull cord in as I want to switch separately from the lights...

Vent Axia ACM100T

Just another question.....just read the informa manual and it says that 'ideally' there should be no other telephone equipment connected to the line? Why? Surely people that have monitored alarms, don't have a separate line installed to their phone and sky etc connection?

I installed an Accenta G4 metal panel with two RKP's, two bells and an internal sounder recently, all working fine.... I'm not using the PA or the Fire on the panel, just PIR's and magnetics. I have a couple of question on the speech dialler: 1. If not using the 'Follow Me' function can you...

Ok, thanks, yes ring is already RCD protected

Hello, Done the search, but not really found a definitive answer.... Is this correct- From a socket on the ring, spur off to a new 13a fused spur adjacent to it (for ability to isolate outside socket), then through wall to IP rated socket with RCD built into it. thanks OG

With the interconnect I meant 3 core & earth (brown, black, grey & earth). The alarms are Kiddie KF10's. Obviously I'm not qualified..... So if I run (spur?) of the lighting circuit I 'just' need to run 1.5mm T&E to the first alarm then the 3 core & earth to the second alarm.....black used as...

Can someone please confirm, I want to install 2 mains smoke alarms from the CU. Do I just run a radial circuit in 1.5mm T&E, then 4 core for the interconnect between the two alarms? Also what size MCB - 16A ? thanks

thanks, if a jobs worth doing.....

I've seen these on screwfix and they look good with good reviews. I'm putting some downlights in, and the exiting rose wiring comes through a very small hole on the side of the joist, so 'ideally' I don't want to cut a big hole to get a standard juntion box into the ceiling void, thus these...

Came home last night to find code F28 on the screen -appliance does not start. I've tried the reset and it tries, but then come back with the fault, it did warm the tap water for a few seconds during the reset. I've read the install manual which suggests a number of possible faults, gas...
