    Underfloor heating not working

    Hi I have underfloor heating in my kitchen extension which does not seem to be working at the moment. Please can I check should the red handle on the manifold flow pipe be at 90 degrees to the pipe when in operation? Please see the photo. Also, I have two thermostats in the house, one for the...

    Single storey extension advice - foundations

    Thanks, I'll do that. There are some council owned garages a few metres away and you can see that a slab has been laid on top of the existing concrete and then the brick wall built on top of that. My extension wouldnt be much taller in height than these.

Is it still necessary to...

    Electric shower keeps tripping RCD (duplicate threads merged)

    Electric shower keeps tripping RCD (duplicate threads merged)

    It is definitely the rcd. It tripped in the middle of the night last night so might not be the electric shower after all. I don't have anything on timer. The rcd won't go back up now.

    Electric shower keeps tripping RCD (duplicate threads merged)

    Plumber bypassed wall thermostat?

    Hi I had a plumber come round to fix a problem with my boiler. He unscrewed the wall thermostat as part of his fault finding. Now though, it seems the wall thermostat is being bypassed altogether as my heating comes on regardless whether thermostat is on 0 or 30. Could he have wired it up...

    Need help! No hot water or heating after boiler man came :(

    There is only one control on the boiler and its numbered 1-6. Guess thats the thermostat? As for the hot water I thinks its seperate as it is upstairs in the airing cupboard (the orange foam covered thing). The dial there is pointing to 70C. Thanks.
