Hi, I'm having problems getting heating oil from ground floor to first floor were the boiler is. Ran out of oil and recked oil pump trying to get it up to the boiler again ( lack of oil to lubricate). Is there an alternative way of getting oil up to the boiler without using the actual boilers...

Hi guys, Looking for a digital central heating single channel programmer. It must mount on the right side of the programmer wallplate ( to be mounted on a single gang flush metal wall box, no room on right side of box) Have seen a horstmann H17XL £45+ mounts on right, any other right...

Hi, I have a small square sunlounge and it has leaked around the two external corners (two frames meet at 90 degrees) The water gets in must run down to the sill dpc and then wets the revails of the plastered walls. What can I do to seal this? I have used silicone on the outside before but it...

I would need to check out all those details. I know most of the detectors are menvier , I will update this later on. Thanks in the mean time I was thinking of replacing a detector at a time with one that works to see what happens, there only are about 7 detectors.

Hi guys, Have a fire alarm problem, fire alarm goes off falsely but the panel shows no faults. I checked all break glasses and all the detectors are not showing red lights as they would do in the area which caused the alarm. Anyone got an idea whats wrong and why it doesn't show up and...

yes just looking at a website with those pumps. Thanks I will try it tomorrow :D

the black plastic cover can be used to unsrew the bolt it covers. when you say pull forward do you mean pull it outward from the pump?

Hi Have a seized water pump, (it hasn't been on for over a year) Normally you can take a cap off the end of it and free it with a flat screwdriver but this one seems to just have a screw in it, when loosened it doesn't seem to come out or do anything. Any ideas :idea: By the way I have...

sorted thanks :wink:

where would the non return valve be located and if there is none could I fit one? The feed pipe is 12mm copper, plastic coated.

not sure if it has a non return valve because whole boiler is boxed into the kitchen. There seems to be no oil getting to the boiler, keeps locking out. I was told to keep turning it on til it fires up.

Hi have an oil boiler upstairs and I ran out of oil.(which was refilled) It has a tiger loop and I assume I have to keep turning on and off the boiler lockout until the oil gets up to the boiler? Surely this is bad for the pump, is there another method?

I think maybe your right he didn't mention if he used one or not, he knows even less then me if thats possible :D

as I said its my brothers house, he also said when he had a phone plugged in upstairs he lost his internet connection downstairs but got it back when he unplugged the phone. Although both phones recieved and made calls :roll: I'l maybe call in and as you say try a couple of phones instead of...

Right that would be ok and it would give the dialler a wee bit more security which was one of my main concerns. Not sure how to overcome the problem were only one item works when more than one item is plugged in at the same time though, in the original post, I can't see why that would be. I...

It seems my extensions upstairs are linked in series with cat5 cable, so if I wire up the first extension cable at the master socket to the voice filtered terminals I can't plug in a pc upstairs or likewise if I wire to the unfiltered terminals I can plug in a pc but not a telephone? Whats...

I might try that but as I said I can't see why it won't work in the first place? Thanks, I have to go to work now unfortunately :roll:

Right been doing a bit of reading on adsl filter faceplates, of which I understand partly. Am I right in thinking if I install one, the extensions leading off to the upstairs won't be able to be used to plug in a pc to as it will be voice filtered only? I really need to plug the pc in upstairs...

no its a plain & simple double adaptor and I did as you said plugged the double adaptor into a single adsl filter, I already tried that, its a strange one. checked the phone socket wirring its ok unless its bt's wirring which is doubtfull. What way does a hard wired adsl filter work? Do the...
