Good point..... was surfing for info on another Alarm issue and saw the post... didnt check the date. Would say tho, I use the site as a search engine to look up issues people have posted that mirror mine rather than post new ones and get the same answer. Have i dug myself out of the hole...

Get some ear defenders.... With mine... Find the tamper circuit loop in the main panel and as said previously... short it out with a short length of wire..... but, my main panel has a tamper button too! So its ear defenders on and go for it! Short it out and reset. Batteres are easlly...

A wallpaper steamer may soften itenough to be removed? i have never used one on slate but just claened all the old adhesive from a plastered wall and it came off easily. Should be able to get a small head for one? may be an otion worth trying.

managed to get a drawing from Ideal Standard who where very helpful apart from advice on fitting.... So... Any advice? I have a clay pipe in the floor with a plastic socket on it which is approx 5 inch dia. Whats the best way to connect the china 102mm external dia outlet pointing down but...

Thanks Seco.... Sounds as if it might just do the trick. Would be nice to see one but cant find a stockist with one in my area... South Essex. Centre of the drain is 235 from wall, can Make up the 30mm by building out. Its either that or a vanity unit affair which is a bit more expensive.

Would plastic pipes and the associated fittings be affected in same way as copper out of interest? May be a solution if not? Would asume it does as no one mentioned it?

Saw these in their brochure and may be ideal fro my circumstance with the waste being in the floor of the bathroom. Wondered if they are easy enough to fit? How does the outlet fit into the waste... a simple push fit i assume? Also the I.S. web site does not show the distance from the wall to...

Is there a system that allows access through the push button appeture to maintain a concealed cistern?? Seem to remember something mentioned on here? Possibly? but cant seem to find anything?? Looking at fitting a Grohe adajio (spelling?) but the mrs wants it all tiled in :roll: looking...

Ta Tinny, Need to some more research. ant download the product sheets. B

I have an awkward WC change out (for me anyway - DIY'er) in our en suite in that the waste pipe is situated 9 inches (to centre) from the external wall going down thru a concrete floor. I cant find a suitable replacement for the one i want to replace. Any thoughts on best way forward. Any...

Thanks chaps, think the extra for the CDi will be worth it but the 30 is oversized for what i want. Calculations where indeed wrong.... must get the decimal place in the right position.... doh! Easily spotted when your doing it all the time, I suppose you lads can look at a house and say...

Thanks Tony... used http://www.idhee.org.uk/calculator.html The junior 28i has a 24KW heating o/p according to the bumf I have so slightly more than the 6% differance. "Central heating output: 24kW Domestic hot water flow rate: 11.4 litres per minute at 35 degree temperature rise...

My fitter has queried my boiler choice and would like views... i had gone for the Worcester 30 CDI. Design value for heating requirements is 21kw. Only DHW feed from this boiler will be to a shower room containing a thermostatically controlled shower and a basin. He thinks the 28i...

Just getting around to this part of the project. Queries. I assume foilbacked boards act as vapour barrier. What do i do at joints to seal it? Re 9 inch quilt, How best to hold it up in between the joists before boards go on? Ta

Thanks Richard, I have learnt that trade paint is well worth the extra so makes sense to use trade products in tiling too. Especially in difficult problematic area such as this. The black stuff is rock hard and i cant shift it unlesss using a bolster to chiv it off and as its a big kitchen...

After removing some horrible laminate flooring in preferance for floor tiles we have found the concrete floor covered in 10 inch square tiles. About 3mm thick and they are brittle but do come up easily. Underneath there is the residue of the adhesive which is black. It is not sticky at all but...

Gutted a kitchen, next step query, walss plastered and base coat painted, ceilings painted. Do i tile floor before or after fitting units??

Thanks for that - will check it out.

Was just reading up on the magnacleans online as it happens. Will check out your alternative. Thanks

Thats it really but no frame, currently the one i have is standard fit to wall but the G/worm kit routed pipes through the boiler which cuts down on maintenance space. Last time we had the heat exchanger out it was a real pain as these pipes where in the way. Wondered if these top fill /...
