    Tattoos

    People who are heavily tatooed may say they care little what other people think and that may well be the case but never the less there are a lot of people who will look down on them . Quote Robert Burns " If we could see ourselves as others see us"

    Best Mousetrap?

    I do hope some of these people have merely been having us on and do not actually carrying out some of these practices.

    Another possibility to give some form of control and would not break the bank or involve any change to the pipework is to fit a cylinder thermostat and a room thermostat. These could be wired in parallel so that if any one calls for heat it will bring on the boiler. When both are satisfied the...

    Damp through external wall

    Without seeing it this sounds like that common winter problem condensation. Its always going to be much worse in the winter and is simply warm air containing moisture meeting cold walls whose temperature is below dewpoint result condensation. Worse in older houses without a cavity. Removing...

    Need to cure condensation

    I have a polycarbonate roof in an enclosed porch. Condensation occurs when the door to the house is opened and the warm moist air from the house condenses on the roof. I am considering fitting a plasterboard ceiling below the polycarbonate about 4 inches and filling the gap with fibreglass...

    Is my CH thermostat purely for decoration?

    Just as I thought the thermostat is in a draught at the door. Clearly its sited in the wrong location. It would be much better in the room where you are sitting. That's where it would work properly. I doubt if there is anything actually wrong with the thermostat only its location. If your...

    Is my CH thermostat purely for decoration?

    It would be good if you had a thermometer then you could measure the temperature directly at the thermostat. If that was possible you could turn the thermostat till it clicks which should be near enough the measured temperature. That would prove its calibration. It sounds as though the...
