Sorry yes I meant flow rate. I opened the kitchen tap up and filled a 15 litre bucket in 55 seconds. After reading around, I think the 30kw would be most suitable. The vaillant looks good, and agree, its not cheap! Are there any other worthy 30kw options? Thanks

Hi there, I am currently renovating my new house and will shortly be requiring a new combi boiler when I have finished all the pipework and radiators. The house is an average 2/3 bedroom house with 6/7 radiators. I have had one plumber who suggested going with a Worcestor Bosch Junior 24...

But the height of the wall is 2.5m, is this not enough head room? Ok, so below is my latest drawing... http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/d438a1/new.jpg

OK, so I have some new sketches, I hope they aren't too hard to work out. Having realised my near brainless mistake of having 6m lengths of wood, I have now reworked the plans. I have incorporated most peoples suggestions and important structural improvements. For the roof (Image 1), I...

Ossy, you are completely right! How stupid, the thought never occurred to me that i had put a 6m ridge beam in! I will have to make some major adjustments to the roof! JohnD, excellent point about ducts for power and water, etc. If there is a DPM under slab, and i put a strip of DPM...

Some nice pictures there! I like the idea of the little hatch doors to get access to the roof storage! Ok, so i will do some work on the roof plans to strengthen it and post a drawing soon. I have not yet fully investigated the restrictions to avoid planning permission. Are they...

Yeah, it will all be clad in either plywood or osb ,then finished off ,possibly with cedar. I did a quick mock up of a ridge beam and a tie, is something like this ok? http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/d438a1/7.jpg

Hi, I am hoping to construct a wooden out building next spring all going well and I have started planning for it. I have not decided upon sizes properly, but i want to try settle on a design specification. But for my first prototype design, i have used 6m x 4m. I have take some screenshots of...

OK, have some more information... This was regarding Sky coming to install this morning actually. He said there was a dialtone, but he couldnt ring out... How could I identify between the bt and the extension lead? Thanks

I've had my house rewired, and I am having problems with the telephone socket, apparently after BT have reactivated it. I'm not sure if it is BT or the electricians fault. I can't get hold of either at moment suprisingly! Inside the master socket, there are 2 seperate cables, with...

Hi, I have just moved in to a new house, but unfortunately it doesnt have a shower fitted. The property has a combi boiler, which is located right next to the bathroom on the ground floor. I would like a mixer shower for the bathroom to get a good pressured shower. My question is, the...

OK, so I think I'm getting somewhere now! So how would the isolating transformer option work? Is this connected directly to consumer unit? via a fused spur? does it appear as a 2 pin socket on wall? Thanks

Ok, the bathroom is only small, roughly 2.5-3 metres wide by 3 metres long. So the options of waiting till January would not work then? I think this is some sort of special hairdryer you can't get in the UK (wierd eh). So if it had to be 110v supply, a socket could be fitted with an...

Hi, my question is hopefully fairly simple.... Basically my friend is about to exchange contracts and move in to his new house. Before he moves in, the house is due to be completely rewired. However, his wife is from the US, and she seems insistent that she wants to use her american hairdryer...
