Mmm Great solution not Shame I want to use this space for storage of ackets and boots ect dogs leads, so they are not in the hall dripping on carpet etc. I think when winter comes you solution would allow the water on jackets / floor etc just to freeze up. Anyway I particually don;t want a...

This would pose a bit of a scurity problem as the door Exterior door on the porch is the security door leaving it open would then allow "MR Bulglar" to walk in though a interion door.. This option is not an option. I take it that the condensation / steaming up of the windows is the warm are...

We have a 3 bedroom Semi in the Northeast of Scotland. We can;t have mains Gas (pipe is about 6 miles away) We can;t have LPG - (calor can;t find a suitable position for the tank So we were going down the route of OIL fired. But what about a biomass system, are they price...

Are you using a good quality Jubliee CLip some of the cheap ones fall to bit when you point a screw driver at them. Heat up the rubber first with boling water to make it soft before tighttening. of a small bit of instant gasket wiped round the fitting as you put it on to heap seal as...

Measured up according to CALOR and it is a no go. This is because the distances they say puts the tank in the middle of the grass and I can;t see that position from the fill point. Also local sales rep from Calor never bothered to call me back..... :? So he's lost that new business. OH...

OK in simple terms - I may have probelms site'ing an LPG tank so another tact is OIL fired. Similar install costs (well ish). But which is cheaper to RUN on the surface it looks like OIL is cheaper (at the moment). Does the oil price fluctuate a Lot? If I buy a 1000ltr of Heating Oil...

I spoke to Calor yesterday and have arranged for there REP to come out and View the Site. I was just wondering if other people have got round similar problems. They did offer 4 x 47KG bottle but I was advised that was an expensive way to run heat. 400l of Bulk = £143 400l of Bottled...

Hi all - I'm new so go easy on me.. Just been on to Calor and they say that the tank has to be 3 m from any boundry (& house) and in line of site for the drive to fill. As I live in a SEMI with a Lean to garage this poses a problem as the garage block the view of the Rear garden and goes up to...

The house originally had Panel heater about 30 Years ago and never got the "White " meter, We have a timer system but thats it. No benefit in charging in the offpeak time as all my leccy comes through one meter. House is to old to have "total Control"

It's still central Heating - Just not wet - Not all central heating is Oil or gas fired.
