Sometimes the waste exit and fall to the outside drains may make one location preferable, especially if the 'services' are at very low level as here? Just to get an acceptable fall. or one has to run such pipework inside the cabinets with loss of space, joins holes etc.,. Or create a rear...

Hot melt glue might work; depending on its UV resistance. Hope the cable is proper external grade. Alternatively I'd suggest using smallish nylon P clips with pan head (stainless) screws and plugs. Would take far longer of course. Another alternative would be 22 mm plastic conduit and run...

If it's a work thing then get them to supply the dedicated connection... at their cost and get them to work out any wayleaves needed to get the connection at the back of your home, where you want it. When I worked we got ADSL lines installed for home working and those connected into secure...

Exact wording of that contract might make a difference. ;) What happens if you have a fall-over to mobile data when there is a fibre outage? Would clients object? NB Powerlines are "wired" they use the house mains to transmit the signals between the units. But they don't like being on...

"No extension lead" is to avoid a cable trip / pull warmer and hot foods over type hazard... Nothing to do with a power / current rating. Partially a makers' rear end covering exercise. Same with kettles, air fryers, slow cookers and other appliances with super short leads on them nowadays...

Over the roof is bodgers way of doing something... cable would need clipping to tiles to stop moving... https://www.aerialsandtv.com/knowledge/cable-connectors-and-leads#cable-over-roofs is an aerial installers take on the issue of cables over roofs and shows what damage the wind and rain does...

Part of Stelrad group, apparently and thus still made in UK. TRVs/lockshields Pegler Terrier (or Bulldog rebranded ones) seem OK from my DIY experience of them, and you can get them with a drain-off if you want that feature. The pro experts will have their own preferences / recommendations...

I believe that Ford Scheduled Service includes 1yr Ford Assist breakdown cover and all the air/pollen filters the schedule states it needs. Essential Service does not include the Breakdown cover. May / does not include any air or fuel filters unless asked for - both at extra cost. By which...

Out where? Suspect that's what Harry needs pointing to...

EDIT: WiFi is for CAD integrated versions and merely allows your supplier's App to display real time on it via a phone etc,., Alternatively the iVie app from Chameleon can do the same stuff. Bright do similar with Hildebrand IHD CAD... that integrates to Home Assistant. Dunno if Chameleon does.

I know they exist Suspect https://chameleontechnology.co.uk/smart-in-home-displays/ will be the place to find the manuals etc.,. The EoN IHD I have is a crippled Chameleon unit so lives in it's box. Half hourly readings via Bright and my EVSE tell me what electric I use via Apps if I need to...

Pretty sure they'll have been DIY install. I fitted similar in two previous homes. Can't remember for sure which chain or the brand... but thought Swish as pretty likely. Same style: slot the door into top rail and lift door / running wheel into bottom track, plastic clip(s) around the wheel...

Make and model of hdmi splitter/audio extractor? (For the user manual/specs). Panny set to stereo should be 48 kHz PCM out and any device should be able to decode that to stereo analogue for the RCAs... Presumably the TV still gets sound over the main hdmi out OK? Why not use the TV to...

Suck it and see when you get it. One 2Ah in use, two ready to use and the fourth on charge should mean that it's a simple rotation scheme... (How long to recharge from flat? 45 minutes?) Then if bigger 4Ah would be useful (and heavier to use it!) then go buy. {They may be available mail order...

https://mcalpineplumbing.com/overflow-fittings/tundishes-non-return-valves/tundish-with-self-closing-valve/ 100 Celsius rating would worry me slightly as the PRV could potentially allow super-heated water to escape initially? Perhaps... But that may only be in a double fault condition...

Oil - what is it currently delivered to you at 500 litre and 1000 litre rates?https://homefuelsdirect.co.uk/home/heating-oil-prices/powys suggests it's around the 6p per kWh inc vat mark? (Roughly 10kWh per litre of kerosene.) Then multiply by your boiler efficiency estimate... Payback time...

Noisiest bit outside. Indoor units still have fan motors and vane motors than generate noise. (Plus the gasses can make noise, not dissimilar to CH water circulating, but different). Warm air blown about ain't the same as radiator or underfloor heating either. UFH is OK but not quick to...

In most cases the two are synced and include the offset for switching and billing... As that other thread shows... Occasionally there are mistakes and it takes an observant customer to notice and contact their supplier... As I've said if the Supplier CS Agents were properly trained (and cared...

Some DNOs won't supply more than 80A any more, I've read. No harm in asking them though. My DNO has a form: https://www.ukpowernetworks.co.uk/i-already-have-electricity-domestic/adding-more-power/fuse-upgrade Check out what your DNO site says. All modern smart EVSEs have house load...

ALCS contactors can be told to open... close... and revert to calendar... by supplier (or DNO perhaps to load shed/re-enable)... see the smartme link... RTS was able to start storage heater use dependent on weather forecast area by area... so that's fairly similar? How it works as two...
