thanks, for now i have shutoff the stop tap.

Hi woke up this morning with no water upstairs. So I am assuming frizen pipe somewhere in the extension roof. My question is, is it a given that I will have a burst pipe/s once the thaw starts? Or can a frozen pipe survive. Thanks

https://www.riscogroup.com/uk/products/product/51061 This is the bell we have. So once i have disconnected the power to the alarm panel, this bell should ring for 20 mins but with no strobe flashing?

Will the bell box not flash even if its has a battery?

If the bell goes off how long will the flashing light last? Normally the sound goes off after 20 kins but I am not sure this would be the same once the battery is removed from the panel?

Hello, I have a risco alarm but the panel does not have any label telling me which model it is. The keypad is a G-TAG one. There is a GSM communicator linked to the panel:wifi risco rp128EW08GTA. I would like to decommission this system so that I can replace it with a system which I can...

Many thanks for your reply. It does have an external bell?

Hi is ring secure enough in your opinion and can i also ask if this does allow arming and dearming remotely, i checked online and I wasn't sure this option was available.

Thanks for the responses. I currently have a wireless risco system with gardtec tag keyboard. The main panel is connected to a separate mobile phone dialling unit. Unfortunately this does not seem to have an option for remote arming. My question is, could some of tbe existing sensors be reused...

Hello, Is there a diy friendly alarm that can be armed or disarmed remotely via mobile phone? Could do with a suggestion, many thanks.

The user keypad is a gtag but I will have to check the motherboard in the loft.

Hi, I would like to know what should happen if the operator who turns up to install a smart meter finds an issue with the DNO fusebox. Should the operator contact the DNO at this end or is this left to the homeowner to do? Our DNO fusebox has the seal missing and the seal holder where the seal...

Hi, What is the best way of fixing patchy paint on a surface which has new filler and old plaster on it? The filled area seem to have a different shade compared to the older plastered areas, particulary under direct light. Is lining paper the only solution to this or just apply as many coats...

Hello, I'd like to know what approach do professional decorators take in terms of the need to use lining paper. Say for example there is a stripped wall with 50% of original paint come off and a lot of edges flaky. Do you immediately decide to use lining paper over the walls or do you scrape...

Apologies for causing confusion. What I meant was if I apply lining paper and then fill, what precaution do I need to take so that the filler does not show the first emulsion coat.

So on bare filled lining paper the best option is to paint diluted emulsion to cover the filler rather than applying any zinserr at all?

Would zinsser123 also work on lining paper?
