Hi, As part of our upstairs bathroom refurb I'm installing a wall-hung toilet with a concealed cistern. The problem I have right now is that the exisiting soil pipe outlet inner diameter is 128 whereas the outer diameter of the toilet waste pipe (supplied new) to fit into this is 105 diameter...

Hi, When we bought this house last year I also purchased a second-hand fridge-freezer. It's an Apollo A-Class. I can't find a manual for it online. Recently, for no apparent reason it gives off a loud vibrating sound that seems to come from the printed circuit board which sits just behind...

Hi, We moved into this house last year and it has a Minimiser SE boiler for both CH and DHW. It has had a history of not starting in the morning. I recently changed the PCB to the updated "41" version which gives it 5 start attempts. All was well until this morning when the boiler didn't...
