Perfect solution then Ronniecabers, I have looked them up on the internet and see that they are quite easy to source in the finish I require. Thanks. Oh yes, I am aware about BC but they are quite easy to deal with thankfully in my location. Thanks to you and Ronniecabers for the advice

Hi, the current reveal is 820mm and the frame width of the doors is 1620mm. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. The doors are actually a cancelled order that I have the opportunity of buying at a much reduced price. Aside from the fact that they open inwards, they are the colour I want. It does not matter to me which way they open too much as I can accommodate either aside from...

Hi all, Looking for some advice on how to install a set of inward opening uPVC French doors in an external wall. The current set up is a DG window so I need to make the opening for the doors in a stone built wall that is about 2' thick. I have installed French doors before but the issue I...

Thank you for the advice, that certainly sounds like a good idea to fit isolators whilst I have the chance to. I cannot understand why they didn't in the first place. I am relieved to hear that there will be no issues in relation to the boiler.:)

Hi all, I recently bought a flat with a combi boiler. The kitchen taps do no work too well, so thought it best to replace the glands - They are about 20 years old now. Thought it would be straightforward but then found there seems to be no way of isolating them! I have found the cold water...

That is just what I need. Thank you!

Hi all, I want to install a stand alone double oven and separate hob plate but I only have the one cooker circuit from my consumer unit that has until now just been feeding the hob. I had thought that I could put the two cables for the two appliances into the cooker isolating switch but the...

Hi, I have a single storey house that I extended some time ago to add on three bedrooms and a bathroom. Apologies if I use the wrong terminology but I have a two pipe central heating system (feed & return) with two loops - one loop feeds the old part of the house and the second feeds the...

Thank you for the replies. That sounds like everything is okay then, so I will go ahead and fit the unit and keep my fingers crossed.

Hi everyone, I have a MEM consumer box. There is a 16 amp MEM breaker that supplies the immersion heater. I have had solar panels installed for the last two years and I have been having issues when I tried to install an Immersun device in place of the immersion heater timer switch, in that a...

Oilman, That would explain why when I came to light it, after having turned it off a few days earlier to conserve what was left of the oil until the delivery came, that it was totally soot free. Yes, you are right about turning it off during the summer months. It makes sense, I know. We...

Thanks Oilman. We have it running all year - not much fun in summer but it's are main way of cooking and it does the hot water. It wasn't running too bad at just under 2 full fills of the tank a year which was equating to about £1000 (£20 per week). However, I realized after the problems...

Oilman, Thanks. The first link you gave will, I think, contain the answer I need. I've printed off some instructions which seem to make sense but it also seems that I will have to turn it off again to set it up properly. Thanks again :D

Does anyone have any idea how to set up the heating control for my oil conversion Rayburn Royal. It was running fine until my oil tank ran dry. After it was re-lit it would not get up to temperature, so I was told to take out the well and give it a clean. This didn't help so a plumber came...

Thanks oilman, I found that site myself, before I posted my topic on the forum but being a cheapskate I was hoping to get an answer to my problem without having to pay for it, if you now what I mean! :P

Stevejac, Thanks for that. We usually run it on the low setting for most of the time, as it only supplements the hot water heating and the oven is usually hot enough for most cooking. It gets turned up a few times a week and that's it. I just don't understand how it was running fine until...

I have a Rayburn Royal with a vapourising oil conversion fitted. It gets serviced by a local firm once a year and works okayish. It was last serviced two to three months ago, but last week I ran out of fuel (forgot to check! :oops: ). With the tank filled up, I re-lit it but the oven won't...

Mikeyd wrote The point of your reply was perfect. It was nice to see that although I've obviously asked a silly question, you've managed to take the time to reply to it without an ounce of sarcasm or any evidence of impatience. Thanks to you and also anyone else who sees this forum as a...

Sorry guys, I did see the link about wiki and I did take a qick look but missed the link to my specific querie. However, I would probably still have asked the question as the diagram quite clearly states that the set up described is not for a bathroom and not wishing to breach some huge...
