Yes there's not too much to it..as long as you get access to a flow and a return pipe all should be ok.

Thanks - I'll have an electrician on site in the New Year for changes to the kitchen - I'll get him (or her) to add anm external socket at the the same time. I have a double socket in the lounge close to where I'd like the outside socket so I'm sure that will be the source via a switched fused...

Thanks for the replies everyone .....much appreciated

Hi everyone How legit is this....I assume as it's not hardwired Part P doesn't apply as it is in effect and extension lead? http://www.toolstation.com/search.html?searchstr=12729

Thanks again Adam One of the builders suggested that we'd probably have to install mains smoke/heat detectors as part of the extension to satisfy BC..I might as well plan for it now. The other route to cheap emergency lighting for the CU..is one of those battery operated push lights...as...

Thanks Adam. Yes the plan is that the CU end of the wardrobe would be sectioned off from the rest to ensure there's always access and it doesn't get covered with junk.

My current CU is in the pantry off my kitchen and adjacent to a bedroom. I've had a thought about a design change before building work starts on an alteration...... This would involve demolishing the pantry wall to the bedroom and then, by default, the CU becoming located in a inbuilt...

Sounds good - where did you get them from?

[/url] Many thanks for that! Did my previous post get deleted then..I just assumed I hadn't pressed the button

Hi everyone I'm about to have a new kitchen breakfast room built and need some help in sorting the lighting. I want energy effecient but excellent lighting. Has anyone used these low energy GU10 lamps in replacement of the standard spot lights? Or any other suggestions of what gives...

oooo you're local!!!!!! Naaarich here too

It seems to be working ok at the moment...maybe I'll get a rude awakening in the morning. The boiler is going to be replaced later in the year as part of an extension to the kitchen...so I don't want to spend loads on it. There does seem to be a tap coming from the boiler about every 2...

It's a Potterton CFL 60 Kingfisher..I think it's about 3 yrs old. It's fully pumped. Pump seems ok..it's whirring away. I've played with the thermostats etc and turned the boiler one down a bit..seems to be ok at the moment..but something defo went adrift this morning

Hi Everyone I have a 'old fashioned' heating system with boiler and tanks in the loft etc.. Central heating/HW came on as usual this morning...but after about an hour there were mega rumblings/banging from the pipework in the airing cupboard...couldn't work out what it was... Went...

Wow this is all very interesting - thank you very much. I reckon we will end up creating a new utility room that would seem sensible to install the boiler in there.....I'm keen to avoid a combi as my bro is having trouble with losing pressure on the one he had installed. Hopefully I can...

Hi everyone I have a floor mounted gas boiler in my very well ventilated (brrrr) kitchen. The flue from the boiler goes up and out of the chimney stack (lined). We're currently working on plans for an extension to the kitchen and I'd like to move away from having to have the kitchen very...

Hi Just wondering if anyone got experience or knowledge of the following... Can I put a car port in front of my garage...the garage is in line with front of house.... Can I build it further forward than the building line? Does it need planning permission...I assumed not as it would...

Cheers thanks for all the guidance much appreciated - I'm just waiting on National Grid to come and have a look to see if they reckon they broke it..if not I'll have a go

How easy is the pipe to cut - a wack with a chisel and hammer or something more sophistiacted? I'll have a look at the damage this week if I can.

Hi Just spent the afternoon rodding the drains as I had two manholes full of you know what. I think I've found the problem - I think a drain has been broken about 2' before the last manhole. Reasons for this deduction are that the last manhole was clear but had a fair bit of soil in and...
