    Waste location in a shower tray

    This could be a very silly question but here I go…. I have a 700 (width) x800 (depth) space to fit a shower tray but from the looks of it (google) this is not a standard size. I’ve found 800x700 though so my question now is… Could I use a 800x700 and just turn it to fit the 700x800 space? Of...

    Block off garage entrance to main house + new entrance.

    I have no preference as long as the job is done properly. I just thought that because the garage is built by blocks then the entrance would have to close off with block too, as to avoid using two different materials (heard this could lead to crack due to humidity, etc). Is there any true on...

    Block off garage entrance to main house + new entrance.

    Hi, I have been given two different quotes and ways to block off the garage entrance to my house (utility room) and create a new entrance in the hall. One guy is going to use blocks to close off the entrance and the other guy is going to do a stud wall + plasterboard in both side. Which...

    See on the photo below where it connects to the cylinder. The side which goes through the wall (left side) then I cannot follow where it goes. The other side you can see it in the photo below.

    This is a draw of the pipes for that switch. Apologies for the poor quality and my bad drawing skills. :-)

    On the left goes inside the wall and on the right goes to the cylinder. It has to be this one right?

    Yes, there is a pipe out of the top of the cylinder. I then followed that pipe and goes to a water tank. See pics below.

    Hi Stem, so now assuming that I want to go ahead and install the programmable wireless thermostat, we take out of the equation the summer months. Which of the below is my best option: 1- Heatmiser PRT-WTS Kit - Programmable Touchscreen Wireless Thermostat Kit Thermostat instructions...

    Ok, this is my pathetic way to find out my system. Apologies for the draw and the poor quality of the photos. Perhaps you can find out for me how to isolate the heating for the summer months. All the manual switches which I find are on the photos below.

    In the photo below, there are the 3 pipes which come out of my gas boiler. The one with the yellow switch I assume it is the gas pipe and the other two? Could I put a manual switch in any of those two to stop the heating going to the radiators?

    This summer I turned off all the radiators and switch on the boiler for whenever I needed hot water. But I found out that I can heat up the water in the summer without using the boiler. I have a switch for hot water (sink and bath). There is a white cable which goes from the top of the...

    At the moment all I do is using the timer in the boiler. This time has a button with the options - ON/AUTO/OFF. In the auto option I could program the hours I want the heat to turn on automatically a day, etc. The hot water is heated all the time that the boiler is on. So to my knowledge...

    Sorry about that. So after Stem's great help, it seems like I have a boiler which contains an integral pump it appears to me that the timeswitch says 'on', the boiler fires and hot water is pumped to the hot water cylinder and radiators and that is the sole extent of your control. I'd now...

    So if I wired the thermostat to the boiler, every time that the thermostat turns on the heat - would this just heat the water as per usual? In which way would it mess things for me? Thanks.

    Your conclusions are 100% correct. Some more information about my system. The small room where the water cylinder is located, there seems to be a switch. My landlord explained to me that I could heat up the water clicking in that switch without the need to turn on the boiler. I did that few...

    Forgive my ignorance but 1- How would the motorised valves installed in your system? 2- Where would these be installed? If not installed, 1- Would this be a big job to do? 2- Would then the PRTHW be no good for me (and should purchase the normal PRT model instead)? Sorry for all...
