    Is an alarm practical with pets?

    You have a couple of options: 1. Pet immune PIRs; there are good ones and bad ones, you get what you pay for!! 2. Vipers/Inertias on your windows, these are good but awkward to wire/make look good. A must for any installation really is door contacts, whether you use PIR's or Vipers...

    Panic Alarm Wiring

    No, no, no, no, no... It's monitored. If you so much as touch those PA buttons you will invalidate the shops contract with their alarm company and more importantly their insurance. Sounds extreme but it's true. DO NOT TOUCH THEM. Tell the shop to phone their alarm company if they want more...

    bathroom from start to finish.

    I have just finished my ensuite and I layed ceramic tiles on the floor, they are not as difficult as you may think (maybe a little more messy). As long as you have a few tile cutting tools (which aren't that expensive) I would personally tile every time (and i have done both). :wink: :wink...

    I will be undertaking the exact same job next year and have asked a few builders on various building sites i have visited with my job. ~The general response seems to be that if you seat new joists into the outside wall and overlap them far enough with the old joists and tie the together with...

    Cost effective CCTV solution

    :shock: :shock: You will be lucky to do that lot for £150. Especially if you want a PC based system. Other alternatives are to buy a Cheap DVR (Digital Video Recorder), you could pick a four channel unit up for around £150, then some cameras and relevant cabling. Have a look on ebay for...

    Cylinder Thermostat

    I'll be back shortly with a more comprehensive drawing, and you can hopefully tell me where to put the ZI valve. I now think I understand the wiring aspect but a wiring diagram/schematic would always come in useful if somebody has one. :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Cylinder Thermostat

    Corgiman: Hi thanks for replying. i have a full gravity system i.e. two tanks in the loft. Spacecat: Thanks for your info, but unfortunately I don't think it is wired as you assumed. The zone isolation valve appears to isolate the rads. i.e. I have just had a good look and the boiler &...
