Accenta 8 system - PIR is (wired) Pyronix Enforcer Super. I just need to remove the one PIR from the wall & tape it up temporarily to paint behind it (I do not want to disconnect any wiring). I know I need to nullify the tamper alarm feature when I undo the one screw on the PIR body to remove...

Ebay trader but I think (?!) ok....has a good rep anyway! Where does one stand when buying new (blister packed..unopened/genuine) parts off Ebay in a private auction with an individual? (I think Horstmann do a 2 year warranty) IF it turns out the unit was manufactured..say..6 years ago & has...

thanks for the info gas112..have already ordered..paid £26 delivered..will have a look anyway.

thanks everyone ..most helpful. The power supply to the programmer is from a standard 3-pin fused plug (into a single dedicated socket ..out of sight in the nearby airing cupboard)..so no worries there ..the plug will be out and on the floor! As I only need CH.. just one piece of wire...

thanks for the link... ..have just read the "wetroom" bit of that guide..would it be worth doing 2 coats of SBR on the backer board adjacent to the sink? I have already done 2 coats of weatherproof pva (not the one that re-activates with water after drying) around the cut out in the osb...

I googled "Mineret board" yesterday..just got 2 "hits" neither of which was any use at all..both American websites!? I will just do as you advise ..gripfill between osb and backer board and an S2 addy for the tiles..thanks again for helping

>thanks tpt..very helpful. the board I have bought was from my local (11 miles away!..we live in the sticks) builder's merchants..they only stock "Mineret"..sadly can't find much at all on the net about this brand...have you ever seen it? ...had the advantage that they'd cut quite a few...

planning to use 600X600 tiles on 70+ cm-deep counter-top 22mm osb (already in place)..now have to fix the cement backer-board before tiling. Q1 do I need to prime the osb before applying the adhesive (SPF/thin set mix) and screwing down the backer-board onto it ? if so what is best...

Very old (but sound) aluminium patio doors at rear of house..nowadays hardly ever used or seen! Don't want to replace it as that sort of money could be better spent on other diy projects. Have taken some photos having first removed the back-plate cover. Basically the track's cross-section has...
