Wouldn't have one here. There is a lot of limescale in the water here and it leaves streaks all over the dishes when using a dishwasher.

Yes maybe you're right. I will leave it here and see what replies I get and then try that if no one offers a solution.

That isn't really the problem. The old combi-boiler was behind the fireplace in the living room. When I had the new boiler put in, the engineers wanted to put it in the cupboard beneath the stairs and route the pipes under the floor boards from there. I said no as I had only just laid a quite...

Thanks for the reply. It isn't really a matter of cost so much as a matter of waste. It takes a couple of minutes I reckon before the water is running hot enough for washing up and multiplied several times a day it soon mounts up, over a year it must be a lot of water running straight down the...

The hot water from our gas boiler which is situated upstairs takes a long time to get hot in the kitchen due to the travelling distance. As it is just me and the wife now I had the local water company put in a meter. In the past year this has certainly reduced our water bill but I have been...

I own and live in an ex council house built approx 1948. The ground floor consists of front door leading into hallway with stairs on right, living room on left and kitchen and dining room ahead. The living room has two doors one into hall and one into dining room. The wall between the living...

There are three wires in box. It is a flat grey cable the same gauge I think as cooker cable with a red - black - and solid earth core inside.

Yes there was, in fact I think it is the base of that box that is left on the wall with the dead ended wires in it. I think they just replaced the front part that held the fuse with a blank cap. Does this help?.

My house is an ex-council house I bought approx 15yrs ago. The wire in question was as stated in my op previously connected to the Honeywell control for setting the timer and manual or timed operation of the old back boiler heating system and the British Gas crew who installed the new system...

The cable is 3cored, black-red-earth of the flat grey type like cooker wire I would reckon about 5-6mm. If I am correct in my assumption of the test I did below it is on a 32amp circuit. Earlier this year I updated the fuse box to a 17th Edition one when I had a dedicated connection to an...

In my kitchen/dining room, all the built in wall sockets are on the external facing wall. On the partition wall opposite, which has the living room/hall/stairs on the other side there are no built in sockets. As I have my fridge and a tropical fish tank on that kitchen/dining room wall it means...
