Its a Megaflo high efficiency.

Hi All. Answers to above. Its just on the hot side. We dont use softener. No work has been happening that i am aware of. It is gritty when rubbed between your fingers.

Thanks. Its a pressurised closed system. Hot water cylinder with a pressure tank.

Hi All, I cleaned out my mira shower filter a few weeks ago as we were losing hot water through it. The first time I have done this in 9 years! It was clogged so I cleaned it and put it back together. Only 3 weeks later I am having to do it again and it is clogged again with a salty like...

Hi all. I want to change my inteenal door hinges from a dark brassy look to the same style but in chrome / nickel. These are Assa hinges but i cant find them on the web. Thanks

If its just the accuracy of the meter why am I still getting a reading being close to the cable wothout clamping?

Thanks. Looks like I will be returning it.

Thanks No, even holding the meter close to the cable without even clamping it, I get a reading of high teens?? This only happens on the high load items.

So I purchased the Amecal ST-9810 to see if I could fathom if I had any apparent leakage which was intermittently tripping by RCCB. Nothing was showing apart from items which heat up i.e. kettle, toaster, tumble dryer, hair dryer. I was getting readings of up to 20mA from the kettle which...

Thanks for your helpful comment! Actually at 7m long and 4 m wide and a height of 2.4m I used the half the height of the ceiling for the spacing of 1.2m. If you do the maths then 7/1.2 gives you 5.8 and 4/1.2 gives you 3.3. Multiplying them together gives you more than the 13 I have. Also taking...

Since LED hut recommend the varilight, it looks like I will be returning the lamps to LED hut and going for another brand.

Hi All I have had fitted 13 Downlights to my lounge and all fitted with 5W LED Dimmable Lamps from LEDHut. Since I have over 10 LEDs I fitted the Varilight V-Pro 300W dimmer switch. TRouble is that the lamps buzz unless you are at full light. I have tried the 3 different modes on the V-Pro and...

So the electrician has been and the concesus is that it is my caravan that has the reading 10 ohms between live and earth? (Might have picked that up wrong). This is plugged into a garage socket which is on my downstairs sockets protected circuit. Caravan now unplugged and we will see if thats...

Update. Electrician still hasn't got back to me so I will need to try someone else. No trips at the weekend, then Monday at 4pm it tripped. No one home. Then today around 3.15pm tripped again. This is really annoying now. So the 5 protected circuits are upstairs sockets, downstairs sockets...

Great. Thanks. I am getting in touch with a local electrician in the morning to come and check. Do i ask for ramp checks to be done?

Hi 333rocky333 I have put an image in my post. The main RCD is the RCCB in the middle.

Ok it's been a while but we are seeing the issue again. In the afternoon, no one in, come home and the main rcd has tripped. How on earth (excuse the pun) do you figure out what's doing it!!

So we have been coming home to find occassionally that the power has tripped. We have now narrowed this down to receiving a phone call. Yes i know that sounds strange but today the power tripped as soon as i rang the house phone. Not all the time but seems to be just during the day...

Thanks. I would say my cold water pressure is more than the hot. I didn't know there was a 25 year warranty on the cylinder or that it needed serviced. I will look into that now though.
