I have an Accenta G3 Mini which has a Honeywell AG6 external sounder. Is it possible to double up the wires and run an additional external box?

I'm wanting to move a fence running along my property out by 500mm nearer my boundary line, would I need planning permission for this? There isn't a neighbor as the boundary borders a lane which is used by traffic so I suppose possibly classed as a highway.

Hello, I wonder if you can help me. I live in South Gloucestershire and am looking to erect a timber garage to the south side of my property, it will be between 15 and 30 square metres. I understand planning permission is not required as long as the building is more than 1 metre from my...

I have a Baumatic oven model P632SS, the fan element has gone and I'm trying to find a replacement. The old one is 3 coils and approximately 250 x 190 x 70, I can see plenty of ebay or spares website but they usually state 2400w or 2500w, I believe the oven is 3300w. Any idea what element I...

I'm looking to extend my home and am having trouble matching the existing brick, I'm attaching a few pics, would anyone know what these are called, or the best place near Bristol who could match them. The house was built by Persimmon in 1994 if that helps. The flash is making them a bit yellow...

I have a block somewhere on the rain water pipework, a drain on my drive is backing up in heavy rain. I have a 15 metre drain cleaner that I can attach to a jet wash bit I know there is an inspection cover buried in the front garden somewhere, finding this will hopefully allow me to get the...

I'm thinking of having a wooden garage erected next to the house on a concrete base. It's only to store a car so I'm hoping a 100mm slab on top of some hardcore will suffice. I know the cost of the garage but want to calculate the cost of having the base constructed. I can do all the...

Can anyone recommend a company who can quote for pile foundation near Bristol.

I want to build an attached garage measuring 6 x 4 to my house, the garage will be built close to my boundry which is close to trees (within 1 to 2 metres). South Glos council have already confirmed that an engineered foundation will be required as foundation may need to go down more than 2.5...

I'm looking to build a garage measuring 6m x 3.5m to side of my house. The garage will go up to the boundry line, to which the otherside has a variey of close trees (1 to 2 metres away). The local council has confirmed that if the trees are oak and Hazel which I believe they are, the...

I had a 30 CDI fitted a few months ago, recently it's been coming on early in the morning as the house temp is dropping, because it's so quiet in the house you can hear the boiler, this is fine but it seems to run for a few minutes then you hear a faint warble or pulsating noise for about 20...

I'm shortly having a new Worcester 30 installed and been looking at the dt20rf and dt10rf optimiser. I was wondering if the more basic dt20 offered a manual overide on the thermostate or is it a case of having to control this using the boiler programmer. I really want to be able to just...

My curent boiler shows it can produce 9.2l per minute at 35oC, the new boiler I'm thinking of will produce 12.3, will this increase the power of my Mira 415 mixer shower?

I'm going to replace my current WB 240 and have been recommended the Greenstar Si or Greenstar CDi. My choice of either 25/30 Si or 27/30 CDi, what I want to know (apart from the obvious DHW and BTU) is what is the main difference with these boilers. Both seem to offer independent DHW...

Recently I've noticed that when I turn the hot tap off the boiler will either continue running or the boiler comes back on shortly after, it fires up and you can hear the pump running even if I switch the boiler to off, the only way to stop it is to turn off at the spur. The Honeywell digital...

When cold the pressure is usually at 0.75 bar but when the heating is on the pressure rises quite quickly to 3+, I then have an issue of needing to top up the following morning as the pressure drops to less than 0.5 bar. I can't see ant leaks. Could it be dumping water through the overflow...

My heating has a rushing/humming noise through the rads, i've fitted a new fan and new Grundfos pump which is set to speed 3, the noise is still evident but a bit less, if I reduce the speed to 2 its a lot better but I've been told to keep it on 3 because its a combi. I can't think what else...

I'm trying to find out if 90 degree elbows and flue tubing is still available for my boiler. It's a worcester 350, about 12 years old, I've called Worcester and they are not listing the part number for the flue pieces. It's a 110mm external tubing and 60mm internal port diametre. Does...

Recently my boiler has got very noisey when the heating temp of the boiler is high, ie large flames and when demanding hot water, initially we thought it was the fan not up to the job, this was replaced and all seemed fine for a couple of days now it's started again, but only when needing...

The screws on the thermistor are so tight in the brass unit that they have been rounded trying to undo them, how can I replace the thermistor without removal of the entire unit?
