Hi All, I'm about to change my ageing toilet syphon and decided to buy a standard 8" Delchem model from Screwfix, only i'm not sure before i fit it and find out, but should there be some sort of diaphragm material flap on the very bottom of the main chamber part ? (where the bulk of the water...

Well ok, i didn't mean the absolute latest model, but wireless technology in general :wink: As for fitting one, if you're competent enough you could do it yourself, there's NO legal requirement to have boiler stats fitted by a qualified electrician (this only comes in to play if you start...

The FAQ-23 reads well. But i would have thought a torn diaphragm would have made it difficult to flush in the first place ?? Still, its only a few quid for a new syphon kit, plus a few hours of my own time, lol Thanks guys

These new wireless thermostats are pretty simple even for a novice and superb if you don't want to be channeling walls out for cable runs. They're all versitile enough for all boiler types, usually little dip switches on the main module depending on you boiler set-up. But look to at the...

Are you thinking of fitting a room stat or a boiler stat ? If its a room stat you're referring to, then they are all capable of switching 230v main, you'd have to try hard to find one that won't. As previous there will no doubt be a link on your boiler circuit board that can be removed and...

Hi All, hoping this might be the place for a sensible answer. My main upstairs toilet flushes every time but just quite slowly, i mean i don't have to pump the flush handle to get it going (in fact it flushes first time every time), but the water flowing into the main pan is pretty slow so it...

ah, my mistake, i just wanted a really watered down white paint to go back over the new wooden panels, maybe i can water down some emulsion paint, i want something similar to what shops paint over their windows while they are having a refit etc

Hi all, i've just moved into a new house (well to me) and need to replace a few section of wood panel in the hall-way, they're white-washed tongue+grooved boards, but what is the easiest way to make up a quick white wash to repaint the new panels and try and blend them back in with the rest of...

yeah, i'd like the same times every day, but then again i guess it's no different really than just having the 5 and 2 parts set to the same times for each day.

i was given it brand new from a friend who is a plumber, but i've only got 2 booklets, so still unsure which dip switch to set to give me a 7 day set-up. I've got the main wiring diagram sheet and a second sheet with setting instructions inc. how to set the dip switches for 2-3 on/off's per day...

Having just acquired a new Siemens (Landis) RWB9 programmer to replace what can only be described as the original grandfather of heating timers, is there a way to set it work just as 7 day timer, rather than the 5/2 set-up it describes in the user sheet ??

ummmm, i think i've read somewhere since that i should take the hot water supply from as high up as possible, where as i've just used the old bath tap hot water supply, so the t-off is pretty low to the bottom of the shower basin ?

Hi, newbie to this site, but recommended by a friend I installed a Showerforce easiboost (1.5bar) power shower pump a few years back now, coupled to a Gainsborough thermostatic mixer unit etc. But really since installation the shower takes a good few minutes for the hot water flow to settle...
