    Texecom Premier LCD zone problem

    I have a texecom premier 48 alarm that I have added an additional keypad to so I can alarm my garage as a separate area. I have used the two zones to connect a door switch and a PIR, and enabled these zones in Wintex as zones 10 and 11 (and then tried again with them set to 41 and 42)...

    Determining flow/return pipes of radiator

    I removed a radiator several weeks ago, and I now wish to fit a towel rail with TRVs, however I don't know which pipe is the feed and which is the return. Is there an easy way to work out which is the feed and which is the return? The system is currently drained down.
