    Towel Rad Control

    Of course I will wait for him to come back, but it was racking my brains as to how it works. Since discovered that the towel rads are on the same loop as the upstairs rads. There are 2 ports at the cylinder - 1 for rads & 1 for UFH. So confused again as to how they can be controllled in...

    Move UFH pipes

    2 runs of UFH pipe need to be moved or even ideally removed (as they are in what will now be the shower). The system is up & running. What is the best way to do this - take the zone up, cut it at the manifold & then relay? Is it possible to 'empty' just that one zone or does the entire...

    Best home security

    I mean say for example in the winter time a lamp to come on so my house isn't sat in darkness if I get caught up late at work. Surely a dark house with no car on the drive screams empty? I would just like to know if the alarm was going off e.g. A text alert? I was burgled last year and didn't...

    Ecotec 637

    Thanks Tolly. If I set the cylinder slightly less say 55 & the boiler at say 65 would this have much/any impact on running costs? The UFH is zoned, so each room has its own neo stat which are timed or from smart phone. All runs back to a wiring centre. House massively insulated & new double...

    Best home security

    Sparky, I agree I didn't choose the best CCTV but I've had it a few years & it's too expensive to replace at the moment! Yes will be trying to prevent burglary eg timers on lights, good locks on windows & doors,security lights etc but I still need a decent alarm system. Yale is clearly a no...

    Ecotec 637

    Thanks tolly. So what would you set the cyclinder stat at & the boiler temp at? Is it the higher it is the more it will cost to run? Why does the boiler temp sometimes go above the target temp? What benefit (if any) would the weather control bring? Sorry for all the questions!

    Wet Room

    Is there a wet room former available that doesn't require the tiles to be cut in an 'envelope'? The former I currently use falls from all 4 corners, and obviously the tiles need cutting to mimic the tray fall so water goes to the grate. I've got another to fit in a few weeks, she wants full...
