It was winston1 who said they should be banned.

Glad you managed to fix and thanks for following it up for anyone else having the same issue.

Before disconnecting anything make sure you take pictures, noting where wires go to and even putting some identification on each cable (like numbers, letters, dots, masking tape, etc...). But yes if you can upload some pictures it would help us give you some safer advice.

I wouldn't wrap a blanket around the fan or any loft insulation etc... as this will not allow heat to dissipate and could cause premature failure or worse. Dampeners/carpet/rubber etc... underneath should be enough to reduce any/all vibrations from an inline fan.

There is this product which solves the issue with water/condensation in ventilation ducts: (Requires solid ducting to connect to this so take that into consideration if using) Just ensure you have the right fall so that condensation flows into this then the water can be pumped/flow to an...

Your blue print head/nozzzles are most likely blocked and need a good clean. Has it been unused for a reasonable amount of time or at least from colour printing? There's some youtube videos on cleaning the heads/nozzles that might be worth trying.

Closing those caps means air cannot automatically be let out, its likely you need to clean/repair the vents or replace. The caps are there to manually stop water coming out when the vent fails to automatically close. Can you take a close up picture of just below the vents where they connect to...

Depending on the door loop contact you could terminate the conduit into a metal conduit terminal box and then mount one end of the loop on top of the metal plate with some sealant between the two pieces of metal and then the wire can be terminated inside the box. That way should also mean you...

Main difference between internal/external cables is usually the UV protection, as your planning to run that in conduit then internal would be fine. Is this shielded cable or unshielded? Yes anyone cutting/damaging the cable will set off the tamper so I wouldn't worry too much on that part. An...

Yes IFTTT for your examples would be very clunky to achieve these groups of zones. I did a very quick google and came up with this which might offer some additional functionality over IFTTT. https://community.smartthings.com/t/release-honeywell-evohome-integration/44953 With this perhaps you can...

In order to use the APP or however you integrate using IFTTT, then yes you will be at the mercy of your internet connection and/or the vendors servers/services. HOWEVER the basic functionality of the TRV's, thermostats, controllers etc.. will continue to function according to the controllers...

For the evohome there is some API knocking around and some existing development done so that users can get the data from the evohome controller and integrate into their home automation software. I don't think you can directly send command to TRV's, controllers etc... but with the data you grab...

Andy, what device is it you've attached? What is it for? Perhaps there's another solution that might be more appropriate if you could give a little more info.

Have you setup the Ethernet module? i.e. IP or have you left it all as default? When adding the module and doing an engineer exit, was the Ethernet module found/added? You need to find the IP the module is using and in the app enter this IP, the port is likely to be default 10001. Is the APP...

I also suspect that once you tell them that you have an alarm, window locks etc... they expect you to use them to "secure" the property. If they find that the alarm was not operational/set, windows locked etc... then I wonder if they would use those to wriggle out of paying?

hahaha I missed that part. Some people scare me with their actions.

Should we give them points for using the same CSA cores into the socket? :ROFLMAO: But on a serious note what the F*%$ was that person thinking? or was it lack of a thinking that managed to give birth to such an atrocity!

There are cable staplers/tackers but the typical ones in stores are more designed for smaller cables like phone lines. Although I would always be very cautious using them for fear of damaging the cable if there is not tention setting. Might be best using trunking or cable clips if you cant get...

Why do you want the smart meter installed? Does it offer YOU any benefits? Smart meters are being advertised as they can save you money but unless your oblivious to your energy usage and leave appliances, cookers switched on when not in use then it will offer you no savings. The only benefit to...
