Hi, I remember discovering once that the water was not hot enough after half an hour so have run it for an hour ever since. You have got me thinking that perhaps the tank was completely cold on that occasion so running it for an hour each night is not necessary. I will try 15 minutes...

I live in a modern 2 bed flat with all electric heating. With an electric shower, I have no real use for instant hot water, other than to fill the kitchen sink for washing dishes each evening. I have been starting to wonder if turning on the 2x 3Kw immersion water heater with a 120 litre...

Thanks John! I done exactly that and got it working, all looks good! Cheers!

Hi, I have just moved into an (all electric) flat and the hot water tank has been completely drained. I have figured out to open all stop cocks to re-fill the storage tank. I am concerned about air locks though and was wondering if someone could please advise if there would be anything else...

Thanks John, I will have a look inside it and see if anything on that site matches what I've got.

Thanks, I'll take it into a shop and see how I get on, Cheers

Hi, Yes I've tried 3 different sets of new batteries and it still does the same thing. Sounds like I won't be able to repair that myself then :(

Hi, when the batteries are inserted the second hand jumps back-and-forth on the same second but when you pick the clock up and hold it face down it works fine. As soon as you place it back the second hand sticks again. I was wondering if anyone would know what it could be before taking it to...

That's the exact same model that I have, it does that when the door has not been closed properly. The door needs closed with a little extra force with this model.

I could see the advantage of it if you had a really big house or out in the garden

If you were to do that the carpet will look awful after a year or so, the area's that have been walked on regularly would show track-lines and appear flattened in no time. The cushioned underlay prolongs the life of your carpet. If you were to a buy a cheap carpet and then spend twice as...

system restore to a date before you installed 2007, windows would have created a restore point before installing. Once you reboot the new software will be removed

I would certainly check the slates on your roof. The timing of your posting (severe rain and wind over the past week) suggests that your leak may be entering from a cracked slate which is not a problem in regular rain that goes down your slates but the rain and wind has been so strong recently...

Oops, I meant milimetres! :oops:

No, you can't do that. What I done was added a new folder 'favourites' to the bookmarks bar to the far left with everything in there. Click the drop-down arrow to access them. The list does not appear there permanently but I don't see the advantage of that, I prefer maximum screen space which...

That would have been the first thing I would have clarified before allowing someone to drive off with my car! I would also recommend booking an appointment with citizens advice

The tool you need to hold the wires is on the bottom right of that picture you posted

I get on average 3 recorded messages each day from companies trying to get me to claim money back from banks for loans etc. Even after pressing 9 (to be removed from their database) I keep getting bothered with these phonecalls, it is got to the stage now my mood changes after hanging up the...

I had the exact same problem when moving into my new build a few years ago which was at least 15cm gap. I bought an auto seal from exitex which sits flush on the door when it is closed but when you open the door the top of the seal is hinged so opens 45 degrees when the door opens inwards...

In Scotland you would definitely need planning permission for that works so drawings would need to be submitted although it will most probably be different for your council area. I would advise going onto the buildings section of your local authorities website to confirm if planning permission...
