I have recently moved into a new bungalow that is heated by economy 7 heaters and the water is heated at night too. The water is too hot and I have been looking for a thermostat to turn it down but cannot find one. The cylinder is inside the airing cupboard and I expected the thermostat to...

Well I pushed it, poked it, prodded it to no avail. The misses wants the cover back on now as it's been off a day and half. Thanks anyway. I may get an Electrician out when I get some funds.

Are you talking about looking from the top view of the red unit? If so do you mean to the right of the screw on the red unit?

Really? The tiny red unit will rock up and down but will not slide or pull off, it is attached to the white block.

Thanks for the reply. I googled "reset Dimplex XMS724N". Took the front cover off and had a good look around but cannot see any button to press.

Thank-you for the replies. It is a Dimplex XMS724N There is also another number, not sure if it is relevant. 000649

I recently moved into a bungalow that has 3 storage heaters, one in the lounge, hall and Kitchen. At midnight all 3 lights on the sockets light up (picture in album) but only 2 of the heaters heat up. The one in the Kitchen does not heat up, it worked the first night I was here. I have...

The PSU arrived today and the TV is working fine. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for the reply, Will there be a problem if I buy a FRINGE P1285 IEC 85MA AERIAL MASTHEAD POWER UNIT to go with my Antiference 4 way masthead amplifier, or does the PSU need to Antiference too?

Thank-you for the reply. When I bought the TV 3 years ago and plugged it in, I think it auto tuned the channels. Anyway I have just gone to Menu, tune, auto tune, it asked to the security code which is 0,0,0,0 and have just finished auto tuning it. No channels were found. I went in the...

I have a 3 year old Samsung TV with built in digital receiver, it never was that good, frequent pixilation so I bought a Freeview digital receiver from Argos which worked perfectly at my old property. I have moved to a different property and if I plug the arial lead from the TV to the socket...

Thank-you so much for your help, I really appreciate it. This one looks the same too, for that price it is definitely worth a try.

Thank-you for the replies. I would rather buy 1 more fob if possible as the prospect of any wiring scares me. Here are a couple of pics of the fob. http://www.diynot.com/network/bluenun20/albums/ ASTER EMC/99/IST/037 CEPT LPD 1 433.9 MHz

Thanks both for the replies. No destructions unfortunately for anything at this property. I cannot even find a brand name on the fob or the receiver in the Garage. I will have a read on Google and see if I can find out anything.

I am moving into a home this week and it has an electrically operated garage door. The old lady that lived there previously passed away and the estate agent only has 1 fob that operates the door. Am I able to buy a spare fob? Can I reset the old fob in case a family member has one and can...

I am out of the UK for a few weeks. On my return I will be looking for my future home and have saved a number of properties in the counties I mentioned that I would like to view. Some are of brick cavity wall construction. It is not clear what some are built of as they have been rendered...

Thanks for the reply. OK, so a rock and rubble wall is to be avoided even if it is 24 inches thick because of the reasons you gave. If the stones have been dressed it could be a cavity wall, is this just as good as a brick and block cavity wall?

I hope this is the most relevant section I am posting this question in. I am going to buy a property in South Wales, probably Glamorgan, Carmarthenshire, Brecon, Pembrokeshire and usually go for a brick and block cavity wall and concrete tile type property. There are a couple of properties...

Possibly, I am on the 4th floor on not far from the coast so maybe more exposed here. It is open plan so no walls dividing the kitchen, dining room and lounge. So when it's gusty there is no escaping the noise. It is a new build and would you believe there is no access to the roof excpet...

I have moved into a new home on the top floor. In the Kitchen there is an extractor fan, normally there is no noise when it is turned off but when the wind blows it makes a loud noise of the wind whistling down the metal tubing. Now I am sure it is silly and maybe dangerous to cover the...
