I have recently had a Main Eco Compact 30w after my Vaillant ecotec 837 plus failed after 11 years. My combi and main sink tap are at total opposite sides off the house so when I draw hot water it takes an absolute age to get from A to B. I've altered the flow of the water but it's the same. My...

Thanks again, the land slopes to the rear but is heavily overgrown with bushes and trees to the fences. We have only been there twice viewing at the time of sale so I am going to have to ask to investigate some more. I never looked deep to the back because at the time of viewing we knew nothing...

Thanks for the reply, your dealings sound identical to my sons dilemma. So do you think the deeds will show any up any historical streams or such ?. My son is still waiting on the other sides Solicitors sending over copies of the original deeds. I am going to pay a visit and knock on the guys...

My son has had an offer accepted on a semi detached property that hasa large side plot if land attached. The old lady who' selling wasn't interested in splitting the property she just wanted shut as she's very poorly and now in a rest home. Thecold lady bought the property from new when in...

So are you saying lose a row of roof tiles both sides then pack it out with batons ?

Hi thank you for your reply but I'm not a roofer or it would as you say it would be obvious. I asked just incase there's a system that deals with this issue as it must be a common problem roofers face

I live in a detached property and the motar is perished in both gable ends between tile and bargeboard. The problem I have is, the tiles curved roof tiles overhang the wood bargeboard by a good few inches. How do you get over this with dry verge that wont sit flash to the bargeboard ?. Theres a...

Can someone recommend a doorstep camera to add to a hikvision Hilook 104g 4 camera set up. The property is a bungalow with 3 cameras fitted so I just need 4th camera attach underneath to soffit right under the door. If possible wide lense and abit less intrusive if possible than the THC-T220 I'm...

Thanks for the reply, after numourous calls to the provider Talk Talk on behalf I finally got the to work using the hiklookvision app. I kept asking Talk Talk :"Do you have any kind of firewall or netsafe or anything that could be interfering with my set up" They just kept saying no. On the...

Hi all , I recently helped a friend install 3 cameras and a Hilook 104g (blue white menu's). Everything's working bar the remote access via mobile phone. I own the older Hiwatch 104g (black menu's) and tbh on Virgin port forwarding was quite easy. I then use either iVMS 4500 app or Hik Connect...

The spar does not exceed 13a I've checked and thanks for the advice

Thanks for the lengthy informative calc much appreciated it will come in handy today. And do those in the pool (I take it it's not you) know that if you spill your drink in the water it will go cloudy like their brains ?

the house has a comsumer unit, yes I say so :) Lay-z-spa website suggest the outdoor socket should have a built in RCD, I didn't write that Bestway did, why ? I will email them and ask why if their units already have one yes, the pump does have a rcd on the cable The washer had a double...

The house is protected with a consumer unit. Lay-z-spa suggest the outdoor socket be protected. The pump unit comes with a built in rcd on the cable and a 13a plug. A friend said it would be better if the outdoor socket was connected to it's own fused spur. I would but this would mean ripping...

lol, a friend suggested the best and probably safest way would be to wire it into a fused spur. The plugs does get a tab warm not hot warmish especially when they've been on a good few hours heating up from cold. I was wondering if I could get away with a junction box joining the old socket to...

I have a switched fused spur above the kitchen work surfaces and the fused spur feeds a socket behind the washer, this fused spur and socket are now redundant as the washer is plugged in elsewere. I wanted to add an outdoor socket but wiring directly the new outdoor cable into the fused spur...

Seems like the element I received was the wrong one. I now have the correct element and it fitted in minutes without a hitch. Although the 2 elements look near identical it's the actual shape of the gasket that has to fit like a glove. Although lots of sellers of spare parts do not list this as...

It's the same process as the video (thanks). Some guides mention a clip inside the tub say similar to a grill in the roof of an oven to stop the element from potentially flapping about. In your you tube theres no mention of any retaining slot or clip. So am I right in assuming the gasket alone...

I ordered the correct part using the washer dryer serial number and ordered from Hotpoint. I tried to fit it but no matter how flush I inserted the element or how hard pushed to keep it tight to the tub while turning the element won't stay in so as I tighten and push towards the tub it just...

Thanks for the reply, the link you posted ? Read more: is that meant to take me to another thread with a similar problem ? it just takes me to this thread. thats the state of what I pulled out
