Hi, I have the KDW60X16 dishwasher, and two days ago it started making a whirring noise. It will fill and drain fine - But will not spray/move water at all. The motor makes a 'humming/buzzing' noise when it starts, and continues for some time until I stop it. I have removed the motor...

Anybody??

Thanks for the reply. Never thought about the heat output for some reason. Doh. Think I will put the brakes on this one for now and do it properly in a few years when I will inevitably be blagged into re-doing the entire bathroom again and actually run a seperate feed and stick it on the...

Hi, I live in a new build with flexi pipe going to the rads. They come out of the wall behind a plastic cover and go to the radiator valves that way. Is there a way I can keep this configuration and replace the existing radiator with a tower radiator without making the pipes come out at each...

Hi, Our lasses Grandma has asked me to do a little tiling for her. No problem I say! Turns out the tiles are 2-3mm too thick for the front of the bottom of the fire to go back on properly. If sat 2-3mm too high, the fire will be drawing air constantly. Anybody any suggestions of getting...

Culprit found in daylight. The rubber strip in the sill does not seal to the door. Its a out 4mm gap on the hinge side. Can I adjust the door downwards in this type of hinge?

Have to sit in front room (to left of the picture) with door slightly ajar as got tow cats and if they can't get about, the carpets end up like the one at the front door.

I put the p-profile on tonight in a bad attempt to stop the draught. I also tried caulking from outside. The second to last picture is a thermal curtain with door snake and still it gets cold :(

A couple of years ago we had a UPVc front door installed as the wooden one was draught as hell. Now this UPVc door is letting some right cold in. I have an infrared thermometer and its showing 14 to 16 degrees all the way around the door, but between 7 and 9 across the bottom (threshold). It...

Right, Thermostat changed. Temps now more desirable. 2c at the top shelf, 5c in the middle, 7c at the bottom (the fridge is 6ft btw, not under counter). Could I add an internal fan to get the middle and bottom temps down? No good as a 'beer' fridge when Lager can only go on the top shelf ....

Defrosted it. tried everything. Will not get below 8 degrees. Is it possible that the thermostat is faulty, but not gone? Compressor works etc, fridge gets down to and holds 8c .. but its a beer fridge ...

I left it 22 hours from moving it before turning it on. I will try turning it off & letting it defrost .. then try again.

Hi, So I recently picked up a Hoover Nextra Larder Fridge for the garage to store my recently brewed homebrew in. Its been running for 3 days now and I have tried all settings (from 1 to 5 inside) and I am struggling to get it below 6c when empty, and 10c with just a few litres of water in it...

Damn, Thanks guys. Completely overlooked the Tee up/down and take my feed from the bottom. lol. What a plonker. Its mains fed newboy, our house is a new build (2007) and no water storage of any type in the building.

Its inside, and falls from the top.

Hi guys, I need to be able to tap a feed from my downstairs toilet, to take to my garage for washing machine feed. I am struggling to find any solution. The current pipework looks like: I need to be able to tee off from this and go LEFT towards my washing machine. How would this be...

This was the original idea, however, I genuinely no longer need a socket anywhere in the vicinity since I am overhauling the layout of the garage. I could still put another socket back up should I require one, as I have just gone for a standard patress with solid front on, and 30A connection blocks.

Cheers All sorted so will now just get to wiring this afternoon :) Many thanks.

Would 30A rating terminals be OK on a 32A circuit? I can get a 30A 6 terminal single socket blank box type connector box rated to 30A ... Might be just the job.

Is this possible? I have a double socket on a ring main in my garage. This socket is in the wrong place. I want to extend the ring within the garage by adding some further sockets, but wish to not have the current socket where it is at present. Can I replace the current socket with a junction...
