No, I did it after I'd completed all the cleaning.

I did that earlier, over the duct as far as the inline fan (the rising section). I'll find some more to put over the section on the other side of the fan but I'm thinking that any condensation there would probably just run out through the soffit vent.

Definitely much less condensation in the bathroom now, thanks! Keeping the windows closed and leaving the door slightly ajar. A good clean out of the grills at both ends and the duct itself has helped a great deal. Am I right in thinking that it will be beneficial if the duct (in the very cold...

It's manual, a fan we switch on and off as necessary.

Ah, OK, I thought I needed to have some airflow, air coming into the room to replace the air the extractor fan is pulling out. But you're suggesting that should be coming from inside the house? Having looked at the door area, I don't think the new carpet should be restricting airflow under the...

Is that a simple replacement, which can use the same buttons?

Yes, the piece of toilet paper stays nicely in place. I actually haven't tested this since I did my last bit of cleaning earlier and it may well be now that the flow is as good as it gets, but I was just curious about the possibility of the fan itself underperforming. If it's simply a case of...

Interesting thought. New carpeting in hallway, some months back, but probably not put to the test, as it were, until recent colder weather. I'll have a look. We do always keep a small window slightly open in the bathroom, though. There's no build-up of water in the pipe.

I fitted a Manrose 100mm Standard Mixed Flow Fan in the attic 3 years ago, to replace a failing fan there. Of late we've been getting an unusually high level of condensation in the bathroom after showering, and I've been trying to determine the cause. There was a fair bit of gunk build-up on the...

It's a Roca D2D New Style Dual Flush Toilet Valve, and yes, it's a twist and remove one.

We have a Roca toilet with a dual-flush mechanism. 4 years ago I replaced the dual-flush unit because we were getting a problem with water continuing to dribble into the toilet from the cistern after a flush. The problem wasn't wholly solved, though, as intermittently it would continue to...

Just to put this one to bed, I finally got an answer back from Danfoss about the FP720: "Sorry for the confusion but this unit is only for fully pumped systems. "

I picked up a very cheap Drayton LP722 (£20 on eBay), and have replaced the Danfoss with this, having configured the dipswitch on the back to gravity instead of pumped, so theoretically all should work fine. One minor puzzle. In the manual there is this: "On each side of the display there are...

Yes, maybe. Don't want to have to get the electrician out again, but the rewiring is probably too fiddly for me to do.

No, it isn't, but the shared copy across supplier websites does suggest it's something Danfoss themselves have put out. The blasted nuisance now is that if I have to send the item back to the supplier, I will presumably also have to send back the backplate, which will mean rewiring which I had...

Well, I've got the customer service people to forward the question to technical now. Their answer will mean either that I can use the device as planned or that I will have something definitive to go back to the supplier with, to show that it doesn't do what it says on the website. (To be fair...

Finally got an answer from Danfoss to my e-mail. They just sent me the User Guide! As if I hadn't already looked at that! My God, this is getting frustrating...

Tried ringing Danfoss tech support but they don't provide support for home owners! This is getting very frustrating.

@Stuckinarut , sorry, wasn't you I meant to quote there but @cider !

I sent Danfoss customer services an email a few days ago, to which they have not yet responded. It would be good to know whether what I'm trying to do is even possible, of course, otherwise I'll have to swap out the programmer. Yes, I did try turning up the thermostat to the highest...
