What is the existing router-modem-wifi point make and model? Some can support mesh wifi add-on units to work with existing WiFi. Alternatively a WiFi mesh system with main unit wired to router (and router wifi disabled) could be the way to go? But may well be more than you seem to wish to...

MY original build concrete / screed / tiles UFH is a pita... partly cos it's an oil boiler, partly cos they didn't know what they were doing so have cold spots and small rooms with inadequate heat (utility and downstairs loo). I'd have proper radiators any day (as is in the upstairs zone)...

House cats = you can keep them indoors for up to 24 or even 48 hours while a glyphosate spray on weedkiller dries fully. (Instructions suggest only a few hours is needed but you may wish to allow longer). Weed seeds will still infest any seeded lawn sooner or later.

+1 Most such valves have o ring seals. WD40 (or any other brand) petroleum-based lubricant make the "rubber" o rings swell and fail. Other WD40 branded lubricant products are probably OK... silicone, ptfe, graphite... As to whether they will help to unstick the seized part is open to debate.

We've had three HP condenser dryers. Our Miele is good in that the filtering is excellent (as long as one cleans them as directed)... but it tangles a bedsheet / quilt if on the 'delicate' setting - it doesn't reverse as much as it ought. In normal setting it's OK. Another brand we had...

THERE SHOULD NOT BE AN AIR BUBBLE in that cylinder !!!!! Don't keep playing with the PRV, just close it firmly. Set the EV pressure right with hot tap open to release water in EV and all might come good. Or not. The PRV may continue to let by and need replacing. Call in an expert to service...

The "portable aircon" has to run at 1kW (approx 26p/kWh) but 24 hours for the full 7 days to get to £43.40 Stupid, stupid ignorant lazy Journalism by an illiterate. OR Arificial Ignorance. NB Those numbers are, BBC states, from USwitch data... so not sure who is the more stupid as neither...

Unvented cylinder can have an air bubble to accommodate the HW expansion via air compression ... mine is an OSO brand, Megaflo make them, too. That can also have a separate pressure vessel that does the same via a 'rubber membrane' separator and air pumped into it... In my case OSO say when...

Clues? What is the Win11 info from each m/c? My HP lappy says under Settings, Windows System, About, Windows specification... Under windows update I have get the latest immediately ON https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/windows11-release-information has the M$ version...

Utter nonsense. I installed hundreds, if not thousands, of TV studio luminaire using Tungsten Halogen lamps. They were designed to be 3200K at full voltage 240V dimmer 10 and gave circa 2700K at dimmer fader 7 at which the cameras were lined up. I think it allowed +/- 2 stops of light...

30p / kWh electric with a COP of say 4 = 7.5p/kWh to heat from ASHP Gas at 90% efficient is 6.33/0.9 = 7p/kWh So not a lot cheaper. {Though efficiencies / COP will change as outside temps drop very low}. My 1000 litres of Kerosene is costing 5.3p/kWh at similar 90% should be cheaper still...

Other valves in the home may give a clue as to TRV brand used in the home? Remove one from another radiator to check it seems the same and fits, then buy a new head... Although head and valve body can be cheaper in some cases and discard the valve. Smart TRVs sometimes have a selection of...

@Johntheo Why would the Pressure reducing on Unvented hot water cylinder affect the cold water to anything other than the balanced shower outlet --- balanced tapping has been unused in both homes I have had unvented in (from original new build install)? (It's the blank black cap on that photo...

Not for the majority of drivers. https://www.gov.uk/deafness-and-driving Only certain class(es) of Licence need it declaring. (Hearing aid wearer, but not yet deaf) I think some of the yoof wearers in supermarkets and similar crowded spaces are Autistic/ADHD types and it helps with sensory...

Correct. But that won't help when A N Other supplier , to take on the ownership and risk of an existing tank, and their assessments mean they want it to comply with the Current Standards. Which is the OP's situation. Rock and Hard Place.

(y) Press in would have been my next suggestion following that description. Honest, guv! Mira may well have an instruction leaflet for the precise model of shower riser you have installed, if you search their site.

They are referred to on the diagram as and need an Allen (hex shaped) key (shown in the picture at the bottom bracket) to insert in hole and find said hex socket to unscrew it. One was probably supplied in the original fixings kit.

LG are freesat comliant (unlike my Panny OLED). Enigma boxes get the EPG and tuning stuff over the interweb with the right 'images' installed. You may or may not find that works when away caravanning without occasional wifi hotspot use? Good luck with it Enigma may be the way I go if/when my...
