Many thanks for you opinions. Problem is, tenant complain about cost, but I know they do not run to set patterns (didn't feel I should lecture them), you know like say, so many hours in the morning/afternoon. All it s been having is annual service/safety check. Then I am worried that a new...

Hello guys I have had a Potterton Neataheat for decades, still going. Boilers are now more efficient so I am looking to replace. Subject to the manufacturer's description of their efficiency and warranty, I am looking at the Ideal Logic Max 24 (ErP) with a 10 year guarantee. I do not fancy...

Hi. I plan to install CCTV cameras at home. I came across a recommendation that a wire cage around the 'delicate' (lens) camera, to avoid the possibility of someone throwing something at it. I am curious here. Wouldn't the wires interfere with a captured image?.

Hi. I am about to buy Zxtech CCTV cameras. They are the DOME type. The depth of my front garden is approximately 3.40 Metres. What I seek to know is whether the lens can be lowered enough so they don not project beyond the front boundary. Also, in one case, the distance from one camera to the...

I have a new Smart TV. It may sound hilarious that I do not even know how to access what you both tell me. I stick to the basics, and it is the licence fee which sent me here, so, Lucid, you are correct. I want to stop paying for TV, but do it in a 'safe' manner, meaning not to be caught out...

Yes. The overflow can be raised. Thank you. So I will do the conversion.

Hello guys. My Dual Flush Torbeck Opella cistern has an internal overflow. It is now necessary to change the bottom entry inlet valve. Neighbours sometimes cause blockage in the drainage/manhole. I now consider to convert the cistern to overflow externally. How could I block off the internal...

Hello guys. I have a Dual Flush Opella Cistern. Water flows into the bowl even after adjusting the valve, which is on the left, as shown in the photo. I checked to see what the fault is. I turned off the supply valve, but did not flush. I watched for about three or four minutes and water...
