Hello, We've planing permision for a loft conversion and extension. It's complicated by the fact we are not clear that we want the extension part (or at least all of ir) (lose to much outside space) and that we are not happy with the proposed floor plan. (the plans came with the house, we...

Just to conclude this thread. It was as @flameport suggested. In the end the electrictian found a fuse burried somewhere deep in the heat exchanger PCB that I didn't find, replaced it and hey presto fixed in 5 minutes flat (they also then wired up the thermostat for me). Thanks for all the...

There is 230 V entering the boiler. I can't find any dead fuses in the boiler (lots of intact ones). Woried I've killed the PCB, surly it's not that easy to distroy?! Oh dear. Thanks for all the help.

Thanks for all the help so far. I've had no luck finding a fuse which does seem odd?! Not checked with the multi meter at the boiler but since it's monday I'm going to phone the profesionsals now...

@CBW - thanks > Looks like it’s an overheat thermostat. Yes I'm sure you are right on that one. > have you checked the 3 amp fuse in the spur? I can't find any fuse box between the 'boiler' (actually a heat exchanger but I cant get out of the habit of calling it a boiler') and the main...

Well I dared to press it and... nothing. A slight click noise, but only the sound of a button depressing. Doesn't stay depressed or seem to do anything. Tried turning unit on, still nothing.

@CBW no it didn't work when I wired the old one back up. Just still dead (no lights, noises, errors, nothing) @flameport There were four fuses inside the unit but non were blown, I got almost 0 ohms accorss all of them with my multi meter Do either of you know what this is: As said...

@flameport that sounds highly likely (I connected 3 wires), thanks, I'll have a dig. I really hope it's just a fuse I wonder if there might be some fuses inside the heat exchanger unit? Will have a look later. If the Tado just needs 2 wires, would the 3rd go in parking? Many thanks!

@ianmcd good suggestion but I definitely stayed away from the 'max 36v analogue/digital' side. I used the no nc com ports (and thought in the correct manor, matched up circuit diagram that's on the two thermostats).

I have air source heat pump (ashp) system, model Yutaki S . Recently I replaced the wired thermostat (a relay one) with a Tado wired thermostat. I turned the ashp system off at the kill switch. Swappef the thermostat, and it wouldn't turn back on. I have check the switch board and the circuit...

Hi, Our toilet is running water into the pan constantly. It seemed easy to fix: Remove the 'flush' and replace with a new one... So I bought a new flush ('universal fitting') but can not install it for the life of me. I've had to put the old one back and now it leaks worse! I can't fit it...

Thanks @lostinthelight and @endecotp . I'm really not sure. Thanks all.

Thanks @muggles and @dal5band . I hadn't considered bio oil, I'll look into that. @wgt52 the install and maintenance of ground source seems a lot more expensive than air source (ground was my initial thoughts). When you say I wasn't sure what that meant in practicality, good, bad, ugly?!

We've recently moved to a 1960 bungalow. Reasonably insulated, double glazed, retrofitted cavity wall insulation, fair loft insulation. The house has a modern (2009) large extension, feels well insulated but with lots of glass and rooflights. The extension has underfloor heating, everywhere else...

Thanks all. Tempted by the cement just cause it feels like for like but I'll have a quick investigate of them all.

Hi, Our garage roof is asbestos sheets which we are having (professionally) removed. This will leave us with no roof and I'm not sure how to put one on. The garage is prefabricated concrete with virtually flat roof (slight slope to the back I think) Our previous garage (for which I replaced...

Thanks @Leofric I've tried emailing. I think I made it clear I just needed a pointer to the relevant planning policies but just got back: I refer to your recent enquiry regarding planning advice. Unfortunately we are no longer able to offer such advice for free. You will need to submit...

Thanks for the advice all. I'll try again finds specific planning guidance but my gut is with @tony1851 on this one.

Hi. I live in the East Devon area of outstanding natural beauty in a rural semi detached house which is well outside (1 mile) any village/settlement/built up area. I'm interested in if I could split my relatively large garden and get planning for a new build. I'm struggling to find any advice...

Thanks all for replying. Wasn't getting the notifications. Will test the driver. Cheers.
