I am renovating parts of my house and am now working in the living room. I would like to add a new power socket there. I ideally would like to run a spur from an existing socket. I have not as yet checked whether the socket is able to support a spur as I may not do it on my own if I cannot run...

Thanks for your help, and as for the debate - I am confirming my thoughts with experts before I attempt anything with electricity. The dimmer is not metal. You are clear in your instructions and I understand fully. Just out of interest why does it not matter what terminals on the dimmer I...

Hi, I have a simple 1 way dimmer which I would like to use to replace my 1 way light switch. My lights do not exceed the maximum wattage of the dimmer. I would like some clarification on wiring. The switch plate on the wall has 3 red wires entering it 1) wired to a connection on the...

I did get the larger pump (2.0bar), however in hindsight I'm sure I didnt need it. The power is unbelievable and I restrict it through the shower controls. I did install 22 mm where I could easily reach but connected it to 15 mm already there........as i said I was worrying about nothing. The...

have cleaned out last week but no different. it is new, only 6 weeks old. Is it normal that the flow falls from 6LPM to 3 once passed through the hose? will try measuring from just hose as I never thought of that. At least that will reduce problem to hose or head

Thanks that was helpful - however no regulator or restrictor at either end of hose. Checked manual there is a regulator built into the control unit (but only restricts to 12Lpm) but that is not the problem. With the regulator doing its job and my low pressure I get 6.5Lpm out of the unit but...

happy to do so but how do i recognise it and what do i do with it if i can identify? remove or adjust thanks

My water flow falls from 6.5Lpm (angle water outlet without the hose connected) to 3.0L pm when going through the shower hose/head. I understand that most hoses/heads restrict the flow. Where is the restriction normally - head, hose or combination of both? I would like to replace with one...

If only it was always that simple. In my experience not all plumbers or any trade choose to do there best by you. Some have done and will continue to do a job that they would not do in there own house. Unfortunately you will not know this until the job is done (leading to hassle and stress in...

thanks very much

any thoughts anyone? ta

Have done a little reading around choosing the right pump for my mira thermostatic mixer shower. I am happy with a salamander but unsure what size I should go for. Showering performance is very important to me and my partner so i don't want to get this wrong. I have a plumber coming tomorrow so...

thanks for this......anyone any experience or other advice?

I have a simple and I imagine a problem that many people have. I have been renovating my property and have recently completed the bathroom. I installed a mixer shower (mira thermostatic) that is working well, however the pressure is poor to say the least. I know this is not the fault of the...

I am changing the switch/socket plates in the kitchen as I am renovating the room. There are no queries about the sockets - just the one light switch I have in there. That switch is a 2 gang switch operating both the kitchen and dining room. In the kitchen are 6 spotlights and in the dining...
