    Velux Window frame Leaking - top corner

    Hi, So it's leaking a little when it rains heavy above the bar. I could feel some foam when I pushed my finger to feel for the leak source and that's where I felt the water. I've read a little, there's flashing out there and fixings, foam in there etc. It is quite old this window. Are these...

    Fit a Remote Expansion Vessel

    Hi, Someone's left the filling loop wide open in my tenants house for months, I wasn't aware. Anyway, cut a long story short... I'd appreciate some straightforward advice. Gas engineer I use is busy for at least 2 weeks, they need it sorted much quicker than this. I have a trade and basic...

    Small rain leaks around chimney stack

    Hi, I would really appreciate advice as I'm no roofer. I have an end terrace house with, as the thread title suggests. A roofer came to look late in the day and condemned my roof basically.

    Pyronix Enforcer, advice on setting up the system

    Hi, I've very basically installed this system but still need to set it up properly. The booklets I find confusing. It seems to have areas ABCD rather than zones and areas don't apear to be the same thing as zones. In this case I have four PIRs and one magnetic contact. Because of the house...

    Which wireless alarm should I purchase?

    Hi, I have a cat so don't want PIRs but I intend just to fit several door/window contacts, a bell box and a control panel. Something simple that makes a noise on site is all because my neighbours are good and would respond, plus I'm likely to be in if it's night time anyway. What would you...

    Gravity Check Valve (plus some Solid Fuel Heating questions)

    Coffin type hot water cylinder (one that lies down anyway)

    New around here so I thought I may as well ask some numb questions. I have a few brewing up :mrgreen: What's the deal with a cylinder that sits on its side? Okay, arguably this is not it's side since that is the design but, is it just to do with space available or is this for a particular type...
