It's the back/outside wall of the chimney it would hang on, is that always single skin? Would that mean a lot of heat escaping out the back of a fireplace and be wasteful?

He says it's only possible with a single skin wall. I was just wondering if anyone had a work around as we couldn't find any apart from the flue coming out the top of the stove and up and out the wall as they usually do.

Hi. I'd like a wall hung wood burning stove in my Lounge with the flue coming out the back and heading horizontally out the house. I've heard that this isn't possible if the house wall is double skinned, which surely all house walls are? I'm told this is because the max distance the flue can...

Any suggestions for a better solution? We got quotes to get that area patio'd and thy are coming in at 4-5k! Home county prices. The decking was going to be the same size as the pool so no excess wood to slip on. If the decking is very low level ie a number of decking planks running...

Hi I need to put a 5m x 5m decking platform on my gravel driveway and I need it to be level. However the driveway is on a slight incline so if I layed the decking as is then one end would be 4-5 inches higher than the other. The decking isn't going to be raised, just low level. What's...

Hi This is the battery tester I used http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/6V-12V-BATTERY-CHARGING-SYSTEM-TESTER-ACCURATE-PRO-RANGE-WITH-GUARANTEE-/380421918411?pt=UK_Hand_Tools_Equipment&hash=item5892e9cecb The guy i bought the trike off on ebay said it had recently had a new battery but i guess...

Hi My son has a 12v trike similar to the pic that we bought second hand. Its worked perfectly for a year but now the power has become very weak so the trike wont move when hes on it. In fact it doesnt move when hes not on it. I bought a battery capacity tester and tested both the 6v...

Hi. The car has forward and reverse when you click a switch. Forward is working but nothing when put in reverse. Any ideas where I should start looking? Thanks.

Interesting... thanks. The thermostat is in a long hallway with the rad down one end and the stat 12-15 feet away down the other end! Its digital. Is fitting a wireless stat something joe public can do or do i need an registered electrician/corgi as it sort-of involves a boiler? Im...

its in the hallway and that is by far the coldest part of the house and is quite large so takes some time to rise even 1 degree in temp. In the meantime the surrounding rooms get a few degrees hotter. we dont have trvs in all the rooms. ?

hi Our Drayton thermo leaves our house too cold when its set to 19C and too hot at 20C. Are there any thermos that have smaller increments? Or maybe one that does F might fix the problem? We like to be able to program days individually. Our boiler is vaillant ecotec. Thanks

what did i miss?!

Cheers. Just wondering, whoever did the previous grouting managed to get it on some of the tiles - how do i get it off? ive tried scraping it but no luck as it really is set like concrete. Is there a specific product i can use?

The downstairs flooring in our house is cream ceramic tiles with a relatively large gap of 7mm between tiles. It doesnt look like grout has been used between then, it looks more like fine cement - its grey and has a sandy texture, it is fully set in place though. Cream tiles with grey filler...

ps we didnt get any instructions with it and cant find any online.

We just pulled the unit out and cant see any way to adjust the regen. There is a label on the top that says ' Regen : 17 or 26' and 26 is crossed out so i assume we are on 17 (whatever that means). Does this mean our softner can only be on 1 of 2 regen settings and we are already on the...

Its 2 adults and 2 young kids. Id say we-re fairly sensible with out water consumption. How do i see that volume its set to regen at? Im sure it regens too often.
