Have come across this, does anybody have any experience with this CH pump which appears to modulate its own speed depending upon demand. Looks good on theory but what is the reality? www.grundfos.com/alpha My radiators do not have TRVs on them but they do get turned up and down depending...

This is fortunate, I came on here this morning planning to post an almost identical problem, it sounds like my pump is seized as well then. I seem to have the same symptoms, cold radiators, buzzing pump. However it rectifies it self when I turn the CH off for about 10-20 seconds and then back...

Hello, Thanks for your advice, boiler should be up to it, I hope. I think I will stick to vented, just couldn't quite decide if the extra water pressure was worth it, probably not, if it distresses me that much then I will fit a pump. Ninjaboy, the difference with an unvented water tank...

Hello, I have had a search of the forum but no success and so here is my dilemma. I want to replace my current vented indirect hot water cylinder (fully pumped on Y plan) as it does not provide enough water for a decent bath and 2 showers in a row is about its limit even with the immerser on...

I would suggest that building your own will not be that different from buying one but if you build one yourself you will get a building which will be 100 times better than some flimsy construction from one of the big sheds. You can get plans from various websites, go for one which includes a...

It will die eventually, it may take 12-18 months before it does. Even then it will be a begger to get it off the wall as it attaches itself to the wall and that it where is gets some of its moisture from. Basically when the better warmer weather starts it will begin to not have enough moisture...

Thanks for your replys, I will try and get a photo tonight. Any ideas how much a 50m2 loft would cost to treat for woodworm using a reputable contractor? :D Thanks Andrew

Personally I would and I have used these types of fixings in hollow walls http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/pro.jsp?ts=92944&id=11143 I have used them for book cases, I find they work well because they splay out behind the wall and hold very firm. I used 4 brackets and 6 of these to hold...

Hello All, Newcomer to here and so forgive me if I am posting in the wrong place. I have a woodworm damaged piece of joist and would like to replace it. It is a ceiling joist in a bungalow, 6*2 in size. Can I just cut it out and insert a new piece using joining plates? Or what is the best...
