Where is the aerator located? May have a similar air problem.

We have a fully pumped system - Potterton Suprima. System was extende two years ago into an extension. pirping used in extension is Hep2o. Rest is copper. Have a bisque radiator in the bathroom which seems to need bleeding every day as do two other but to lesser extent. The bathroom rad...

I am replcaing a kitchen ceiling - after having a new lighting circuit put in. Is it necessary to skim the boar after fitting - I was thinking of using 12.5mm tapered edge so I can tape and fill the edges. Also as it is kitchen space should I have two thicknesses of board and vapour shielding...

Plumber long gone and I wouldn't want him back. Catalogue of issues.

Tried that - marginal difference,. Is it possible that the plumber connected bosides of the rads onto the flow pipe - all hidden now under a fully tiled bathroom?

So lock down every other radiator in the house and give it a blast to see what happens?

Potteton boiler, fully pumped system, 13 rads. Systme extended with new rads/pipework for an extension. Have changed the pipework as recommended on this forum, taking out a dead leg and amending some intricate routing on two rads - bathroom rad now heating up nicely, rad furthest from pump...

I see. I'll be running cables in 2" false ceiling - below the old ceiling.

Sorry to be obtuse Q but what are the usual? Tks

Thanks for previous advice on false ceiling cabling and live earth wire by the Ferryman. Reading many posts on bathroom zones leaves me a little concerned and I would appreciate your advice. The halogen lights we want to have installed will be going into a false ceiling which is partly...

Worst thing is the 'earth' L2 live has yellow and green sleeving around it!!!

quite - can we run 8x50w off a single switch?

Checked the back of the box, Ban do you have a crystall ball - earth conductor tucked nicely into L2 and live as a wasps nest. What should I do next. We do not/will not use the extractor so I can disconnect one of the circuits, however, slight issue, i want to run 8 x 50w halogens - can this...

Thanks BAS. Will have a look tonight when I get home and revert. Hope its 3 core + e. I assume that is a standard procedure, mind you the person who owned the house before us was a Ferry electrical engineer and a lot of the stuff we have found, whilst probably superb technical electrical...

Tks, I'll have to double check but I was sure the cable into the switch was only t & e, but from what you are saying this cannot be the case?

I am replacing current lighting with some normal voltage halogens (thanks for advice on previous post) I am somewhat puzzled by the wiring arrangement on a 2 gang switch, but I am sure one of the bright sparks here [every pun intended] will be able to explain in a trice. There is only on...

Have a wireless which is working fine. System notifies of battery life, installation as simple as can be, jamming sets of alarm (although I have never experienced this yet), clean and simple (no wires showing) and test trips show system to be fully functional.

Tks. I will be using plasterboard for the dropped ceiling on 2" battens.

Need to re-route some cabling in order to 1) Change kitchen lights from two spots to eight halogens . As I cant get to celing void I am going to drop the ceiling by two inches and run the cabling inside the 2" void. Is this allowable - are the any specific safety requirements I must be aware...

Had a problem with the bathroom rad not heating properly, there is always a lot of air to bleed off. It is on the ch system - not the hot water heating. When it was re-sited to a new bathroom plumber had to route the feed pipe under some existing 22mm hot and cold water pipes. He dropped the...
