Worse when room has been closed up

I did think that but it has been ongoing for a month or more. Surely any rodent would be dust and bones. Also the small seems to linger mid room near the door. No small at floor level.....

There has never been a drop in the boiler pressure or signs of leaking on the ceiling etc but I'll check this out Spare room, no teenagers in the nearby zone ;) Gas was turned off, gas detector, no gas pipes nearby and only in this one room....

Hi In one of my bedrooms there is a gas like smell near to the door. It has been confirmed that it isn't gas. Although you can smell it as you enter the room it can't be pinpointed to coming from under the floor, wall etc. No other room smells of this. There is a bathroom next door to the...

Thanks for the reply. I need the frame to protrude beyond the level of the plasterboard as the MDF will be a floating wall. So I should cut the plasterboard out and install wood directly to the brick which is level or protrudes and then either fix the frame or mdf to this. I want to double...

Hi I am building a wooden frame which I plan to fix to drywall with anchor bolts. There is the brick wall with a gap of 70mm to the front of the plasterboard and the batons will go on top. The plasterboard is fixed to the brick with small pieces of wood. Would this be a satisfactory way to...

Cheers!

Any help appreciated :)

Thanks for the reply. The Drayton site states that all Drayton time switches have volt free contacts and looking at the LP241 if you don't include the link from L to terminal 1 they appear to be volt free. Is there more to it than this though?

Hi :) I have a Biasi Riva Compact m90e 28s which was installed in 2002. I recently moved into the property and had the system cleaned and serviced. Now whenever the hot water is called for it runs cold and the boiler doesn't fire up. If the heating is on hot water runs fine. Also if the...

Hi I've got the chance to pick up a cheap Drayton LP241 timer and from what I can figure from the manuals it should be suitable for my Biasi combi. Is anyone able to confirm that it will indeed work and also confirm wiring for this boiler? Would be much appreciated :) Cheers Neil

Thanks for that I've adjusted a few and does make a difference as well as turning the keep around. I found that site shortly after posting - had my terminology for the bits wrong lol Thanks again

i have something similar - stick your ear up near until you clearly hear the extra sound then push the window against the frame - if it seals it you will hear a difference

Hi I have DG UPVC windows which seem to have been fitted in a hurry - problem seems to be that some of the frames have been put in and they are very slightly warped causing the seal to not completely make at places. The closing mechanism is a pin which pulls accross and marries into a stay...

OK thanks, I'll use 2x8's. The purlins were for adequate fixings for the sheeting.

Hi all A search didn't yield any results for this question so apoligies if it has been answered before. I am about to lay laminate in a kitchen over existing floorboards - I've secured the floorboards and the floor is pretty level. What thikness of hardboard/plywood is recommended for the...
