    Cooker switch question

    Thanks for this - both of you. I suppose my next question is whether a 32A will suffice for a cooker. I guess that depends on the cooker in question but looking through the manual of the proposed winner simply says it should be to 13A plug socket (it's a range cooker with one gas oven and...

    Cooker switch question

    I can't seem to find one which occupies a single box. They all seem to come with sockets or are oversized and fit portrait boxes. There must be a reason for this ... Size of the fuse? I'm trying to match the MK range - I can see a 30A single switch - but nothing higher. Appreciate the help.

    Where to vent a blocked chimney breast?

    We're fitting a built-in extractor in a chimney breast above an range oven. We're running the duct out of the side of the chimney breast rather than up it to avoid long ducting runs etc. I'm aware now we're effectively blocking the chimney - so there is a need to ventilate it by including an...

    Vent out of side of chimney breast?

    Bear with me on this one - would really appreciate the help. We have had a partial chimney breast removal with a new SE-specified lintel installed to support the sides of the chimney. The chimney takes a range cooker. Now comes the tricky part... having explored extraction options, I'm...

    Range Cooker Recommendations

    You might be better of trying moneysavingexpert.com forums as they are sometimes more helpful with this kind fo thing. Otherwise, there is a Which? report on range cookers - but most are gas - would be a helpful start I think rangecookers.co.uk are meant to be helpful people. (I'm in...

    Electrolux Insight EFC90680X

    Thanks for answering ... though really can we all stop this linking-to-google, thing? It's neither funny nor useful. I would imagine I'm a significantly more advanced user of the net than you are - (judging by my average skill - nothing personal) so I actually find it faintly insutling when...

    Electrolux Insight EFC90680X

    Please ... has anyone got this hood? I need a dimension off it and Electrolux are proving really difficult - won't put me through to tech support etc. and can't understand what I'm on about. I need the horizontal dimension from the back of the hood to the centre of the ducting hole (basically...

    Networking an office shed

    Hi, I ran around 25m of CAT5E external grade to my office shed. One end goes into the shed, the other into the house - and is then joined to a coupler to run the last few metres to the router (yes, i mismeasured by a few metres ... :oops). Anyway, I'm getting significant signal degradation...

    Icon airflow - size and noise?

    Hi, Am looking for an extractor fan for a utility room - fitting into an outside wall. The room is small - 3m x 1m x 2m (with a slope at one end as it's under some extermal stairs). It's being treated for damp as it's partly below ground level but not sure how effective this will be...

    Fire doors - solid wood? Composite?

    Hi All, I've got to fit a firedoor (30min) at the bottom of a stairwell into a dining room. Ideally it would match the other doors in the house - raised six panel doors. Anyway, my question: 1) Are firedoors all composite in makeup?: Most of those I find are veneered stuff - which is fine...
