Be carefull using rotary machinery(drills lathes etc) depending on their speed the flicker can make them apear stationary. As has been stated high frequency balasts are better and are used in workshops for the reasons above.

I think slapper meant did you mark the location of the pipes on the wall before the cupboards were fitted. Its not unknown for someone to drill through a pipe if they dont know its there.

Its no joke what you have done is not just dangerous its highly dangerous. You are putting your self and familly at great risk. Whoever built over the boiler flue has broken the gas safety istalation and use regulations and if someone is injured or killed is liable for a manslaughter charge...

The timer may well only cost £40.00 but the rest of the money quoted is to remove the front cover which is part of the combustion chamber. Replace the clock replace the cover and carry out the legaly required safety checks. This is not a diy job if you do not replace the cover properly products...

The combustion chamber is a closed forum for registered and retired gas safe registered engineers. This is the place to come and ask questions like these.

Also check your electic supply. 6 electric showers all running at once is a huge load, excluding any other electrical loads. The property will probably need a supply upgrade and your DNO will need to be told about your proposed electrical needs.There may not be enough spare capacity in the...

I wouldn't wish any ideal boiler on my worst enemy But then on second thoughts payback is a bitch :D

Ist one 10 gauge screw 4" long 2nd one 4.5 mm diameter 60 mm long third 7.5 mm diameter 60 mm long Hope this helps ian :D

The two elements are usually one for E7 and one for daytime boost. Also you will need an installer with G3 qualification to install this for you. This is not suitable for diy installation.

The Boat Safety Scheme does accept hard solder (silver solder) joints on gas pipes. Soft solder is not allowed under any circumstances. A 3/8 olive in the bubble tester will seal without any problem.

The GSIUR does not apply to a privately owned and operated boat. The GSIUR does apply to hire boats and residential (house) boats. So if a private boat is outside the scope of the GSIUR is diy gas work against the regs?. Also the hose spec you posted is for type 1 low pressure hose, All...

Oh please not like screwf*x I can't look there now without seeing total *****rs spouting wrong advice. With a few exceptions thank heavens.

Best of luck mate just remember that when you reach your target weight don't slip back to old habits. Keep the healthy eating up and you wont look back. I lost 6 stone and have never felt better, but its a struggle to keep to a healthy and low fat diet but I will to enable me to hopefully...

The boiler flue should have been moved before the garage was built. Any builder with an once of sence should have noticed the proplem before quoting for the work. What you now have is very dangerous situation dont use the boiler at all until the fluing is sorted. This asumes that flue parts...

Deansplit There is not enough information in your question to answer. How far is the gas bottle from the house? How long is pipe run in the house? How big is the cooker(KW)? How big is the gas fire(KW)? How many bends tees etc in the pipework? Are you sure that the cooker and fire are...

I am pretty certain that they are the same as you would find on an articulated trailer for the lights. The tractor unit has the cables permanently connected to it and plugs into the trailer.

They look like commercial vehicle trailer sockets. Maybe they are in parallel with the other tow bar sockets? This would enable the transit to tow a cable drum trailer or similar and plug strait in to the road lights on the trailer.

I refer you to a culling thread nearby :wink: Culling is one answer, it would be better to prevent them breeding in the first place :D

The problem i see with this idea is that the people who want to own dangerous dogs will ignore any licencing regulations. Once again the law abiding majority will be penalised for the behavour of those in society who don't care about anything or anyone.

As long as the plug top has a 3amp fuse then its ok. Its not the way most installers would connect a boiler to the mains but its not dangerous. It just looks like the installer didn't care. :?
