I have a flat bed diamond wheel cutter that does an ok job but tends to leave small chips out of the face of the tile. Do the Rexon radial cutters I've seen on ebay leave a cleaner cut or is there a better tool out there.

Is that what you did :)

Starting bathroom refit shortly which will involve stripping off old tiles/plaster etc right down to the brickwork and removing the ceiling. I plan to use plaster board and tank the shower enclosure and around the bath. Should I use the vapour check plasterboard or will the standard type be ok...

Thanks for reply, was my assumption that pipes under upstairs floorboards correct or should they also be lagged.

I know CH copper pipes that run in unoccupied areas,loft/roofspace cellars etc should be lagged but I'm not sure if pipes that run under groundfloor floorboards should be. The floor is suspended about 3' above the ground so I would have thought the pipework would suffer heat loss. On the other...

Fitted the g+b wire to the terminal Marked L and it seems to work although the pumps bearing have failed so it's not very efficient and not draining sufficiently to allow machine to go to fast spin speed. Machines a pain to to pull out but I've ordered a new pump so when that arrives I will...

Just removed wiring from drain pump [red and green + black wire] on my hoover quattro system 1300 washing machine and I was sure the green + black wire went to the terminal marked L and the red to N but surely red is usually live and should go to L and green + black to N. Can someone please...

Not sure exactly why a minimum of 450mm maybe Steve can enlighten you, mine now measures 410mm after reconfiguration today, no air's entering the HW so I'm :D Thanks for the advice.

Thanks for the input ChrisR and Gplumb but would it be better to do as Steve has recommended particularly the 450mm offset to avoid heat being lost through the vent. It's not to much trouble to change layout and I would prefer to achieve as near as possible to the optimum set up.

Thanks again Steve, if I go straight to the vertical it only measures 270mm so will it be ok to put in a 90 degree bend to gain the extra length required. Yes I did buy a 3/4" to 22mm fitting for the pump pipe

Thanks Steve would this be ok

Thats what I thought might be happening, here's a photo as picture isn't clear. Any suggestions how i could rectify my mistake[img]

Two days ago I installed 140 l indirect cylinder and 50 gallon loft tank, since installed I them I have a small amount of air coming out of the HW taps. The only differences from the old system are the increased size of the tanks, a surrey flange (ready for shower pump with valve closed) and...

Cheers Simond, . Have you known the relays to failbefore beause I was thinking there may be a fault elsewhere thats causing the relays to buzz although saying that the noise stops after a while. Not 100% sure what a 2 channel programme is could you please clarify.

My CH programmer honeywell ST1700, has started to make a buzzing sound when he hot water comes on. I noticed there are 2 black components that look like relays which I think may be the source of the noise. Is it possible to replace the relays or will I have to buy a new programmer, if a new...
