Hi, We have created a en suite bathroom (shower, sink and toilet) in a small room (2.5m x 1.2m) which is in the middle of the building in the lower ground part (this is a tenemant block of flats we have ground and lower ground which goes under the ground). There is no window in this room and...

Hi Folks, I got a 120" projector screen that has fixed fixings at either end. The screen unit is nearly 3m long and I have a chimney breast that butts out about 3" but it is less than 2m in width so the screen fixings have a 3" gap when I put the screen flush against the breast. The...

I checked the hot tank, there is 4 pipes attached. One at bottom, one at top then one just above middle and one below the middle. The one above the middle is hot for about a foot then is cold, is this the airlock?
