It UNSCREWS anti-clockwise (or at least a 1/4 turn) before it can be pulled out. Crud and limescale can / will make things stick and/or jam up. So twist back and forth opening / closing the filter to attempt to free it up more. Wiggle up down as much as possible, too. Gentle percussive taps...

"Stock availability: Collect 99 days Delivery 117 days" - suggests none in stock and a to be confirmed delivery date in the distant future?

U & Gold as it is now known is not available on any terrestrial or free satellite service in the UK (and may well be paywalled on streaming services also). https://www.uandgold.co.uk/ In any case terrestrial and satellite broadcasting of TV signals is doomed. Internet delivery is the way...

You are missing the important picture of the ceiling rose / cable exit / chain support bit at the top! Likely have a similar hook for the support chain up there. They unscrew to allow access to terminals under the silver (chrome?) dome... which slips off the thread. May need two people (one...

Broadcasters don't bother with tilt unless they intend the beam to fire in that direction. CP UHF transmit has beam tilt to limit signals to the Continent and aims down a bit to the horizon rather than horizontal... 6 degrees rings a bell but it may be different. Again, I suspect it's a...

Loft can be full of 'standing wave' reflections... So be prepared to move the aerial higher/lower., crab left/right and fore/aft in a cube of space with 1 metre sides... checking all 6 mux frequencies on the TV meter... all the while pointing directly at the transmitter. Professionals use a...

My former colleague John Riley of BBC R&D published the theory and plans to make one, a long time ago... albeit that'll have been for frequency channels 21-68 inclusive. https://downloads.bbc.co.uk/rd/pubs/reports/1973-24.pdf and an earlier report was...

eBay - Jones DIY sell pack of 10 6mm x 200mm wood screws for £7.49 inc P&P. It was the first one I found... Sure there will many other sellers on there... Or find an old fashioned Ironmongers or timber yard that might keep and sell split packs of screws. Giving your (approx) location may...

I doubt it, with those shape control knobs and no "Grohe" imprint on the body. Google Lens suggests https://www.fixthebog.uk/aqualisa-910071-replacement-contract-midas-100fs-bar-valve/ which has similar shaped handles, temperature control on right and mixed connection out to hose on left...

HD Homerun or similar box (Media Server/NAS/PC with UHF DVB-T2 tuners) on the end of the coax from the aerial and then serve the desired TV/radio channels to smart TVs, media players over ethernet and/or wifi. e.g. https://www.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/ Note that splitting an aerial feed to...

My mirrors use the plug and socket style linked to earlier. Available from the diy sheds as well as trade electrical stores. Greenbrook lighting connector in Toolstation and Screwfix.

Probably not. @Millstone was last seen here on the 18th...

You'd be best saying why you need to know the CSA of this cable and are obsessing over the dimensions of the one installed. Is it the cable to the 'extension DB' in https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/cable-size-for-two-ovens-and-a-hob-from-extension-cu-with-6mm-supply.655113/ perhaps? You...

https://assets.cef.co.uk/downloads/pdg/prysmian_6242y_datasheet/prysmian_6242y_datasheet.pdf has the dimensions of one maker's cable... 6.8mm cf 8.4mm and 13.1mm cf 16.8mm for the two dimensions pictured (with that rule positioned too poorly for even the wildest guesstimation). Provide a better...

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...
