Hi, in one of my bedrooms i can feel the window sill is very cold. I took a look outside and see a good 2 to 3 inch gap and screws into the bricks. Those screws are from the window frame. They were fitted before i bought the house and are double glazed My question is should i put rockwool in...

I have no idea what the second little one is. Its been there forever. When they did the chimney there was a silver foil pipe in there. I have no idea where that was connected. What should i replace it with

Mine sounds like a gale is blowing. It never happened before this was fitted. Mine is sealed so nothing to open.

Hi, I had a new fire fitted about 4 years (HE gas) into a class 1 chimney. During some building work I was told the chimney didn't have a cowl fitted and that rain/birds could fall in. So I purchased one and it was installed. However since then in light to moderate winds the chimney is...

Pir disabled set to spare and no tampers. Ive noticed my kitchen pir wont set on walk test. On Tuesday i will give the above a go and see how i get on

No joy sadly. I tried all of them up to 1018. Nothing worked on walk test and it keeps saying tamper when trying to come out if engineer. Back to drawing board to look at wiring. There must be a mistake in there

Ive put a photo up of the board. The new pir is on the far right of the photo. Is that correct? From the manual it says i can work the zone number out. I can't from that. Any idea please

Hi i did this. I changed one from spare and enabled it. When i went into walk test nothing happened. It makes me think i have not connected the pir correctly. I will have a look. Could you tell me which ones should be connected please? Many thanks

Hi i added a new honeywell pir to the system. When i walk past the sensor the light comes on detecting movement. I need to add the pir on the keypad. I can get into engineering mode but I'm not sure what to do next. I did a walk test on all zones but it didn't activate. I suspect i need...

Hi, my beko dishwasher stopped heating up the water. There is no warning or fault code I can work out. I've removed the bottom and had a look at the water heater. It's a flow through. I've disconnected it and I'm getting a tone for continuity. I'm going to replace it at a cost of 15 quid...

Thank you I will get a bucket and try this. I am hardly at home at the moment

I've had a new pressured system fitted inn the loft. From what i understand it uses cold pressure or flow to push hot water. I've got a brand new 32mm mains into kitchen which then goes to 15 for whole house. Now if you gush a toilet you lose pressure. The initial burst of hot is great in the...

Hi, I currently have an hot water tank in the airing cupboard and 2 tanks in the loft. One is for water and one is for central heating. There is an immersion option but we never use that. My hive is currently set to gravity-fed. I can have hot water on without central heating. If this system...

I sought some legal advice on the issue. We are talking about a 4cm overhang at best on one pole. Interestingly they complained once and we had already altered it. Everything else was the same. Then they complained about another pole which was visible. We suspect it was calculated knowing the...
