    Solid wood flooring, Float or Secret nail?

    I've done a simple floorplan picture(In Ms Paint incredibly!) showing the layout. The boards will run across the house, left to right if you will, so the maximum number of boards adjacent to each other will be from the front door all the way through to the far end of the living room, the 10.1...

    Solid wood flooring, Float or Secret nail?

    Okay, all good info, many thanks! The wood is solid Acacia. The distance i actually 10.1 metres as you walk through the front door into a small square hall, then down a 1 metre wide passage to the doorway into the living room, which forms the final 5.8 metres of the run to the back of the...

    Solid wood flooring, Float or Secret nail?

    Thanks for all the advice so far, we have decided to run the boards the same way as original, so will therefore be laying the hardboard on the diagonal as advised. The run from the front of the house to the back is about 9 metres. Will 10mm clearance either end be sufficient for this...

    Solid wood flooring, Float or Secret nail?

    Thanks...... I haven't used wood glues for a while now, although my job is in Composites and I use Epoxy resins and polyester on a daily basis! How important is the Underlay for thermal insulation? This flooring is on a groundfloor, so neigbours below are not a concern, although I would...

    Solid wood flooring, Float or Secret nail?

    Okay... I assume that if the new flooring is being laid in the same direction as the original, the hardboard is to take away any problems with the jointing of the new coinciding with the old? Assuming that it's floated... on underlay, have you any recommendations for a good quality glue?

    I have a 46m area over 3 rooms and 2 hallways, 3 doors and one wide arch. 4 radiators. The flooring is a mix of longer and shorter pieces. It will be laid over the original pine planks, across the rooms, which is the same way the originals. (House is 1913 Edwardian) The original planks are...

    Vokera Compact SE - rising pressure

    The pressure rises all the time. If I leave it all alone for an hour or two until the boiler is completely cool, and then re-pressurise to 1 Bar or so, over the next hour or two the pressure will slowly rise back up to the red, and begin to slowly seep through the safety valve. I looked at...

    Vokera Compact SE - rising pressure

    Thanks for the response, I really appreciate it. Surely though the expansion vessel is purely on the CH side of things, and has no connection with the mains water supply? The alternative being that there is a pathway between the DHW and the CH side now within the heat exchanger...

    Vokera Compact SE - rising pressure

    I have a Vokera Compact Se 24, combination boiler of about 5 years old. It has recently started suffering rising pressure in the CH side, I have replaced the safety valve and inlet valve on the filling loop very recently, and left the filling loop unattached this time as the old valve was...
