Hi We've recently purchased a new hotpoint double oven after our last one packed up. The guy from currys refused to wire it into the cooker low socket saying it will overload the circuit and blow the fuse and he's not qualified to take it on. So, gets 2 sparkies to come and quote the job...

Hey all hope everyone is well and had a good xmas. Not sure if this is in right place (please relocate mods if it isn't). Basically, as the title suggests we have a family of these whom have nested in the very corner box section of the eaves on our bedroom side. It's inaccessible from the...

Hi We're in the process of renovating our bedroom and have decided to wall mount our TV. There's an existing aerial point on the same wall as the proposed TV point and is not too far away. The wall thankfully is hollow. If I get a new single aerial box and cut it into the wall at the new...

Hey all I have a Flexiconn CX 30 that is controlled by a center brand stat from Plumb Centre. The stat is located in an acceptable position away from any direct heat sources, draughts or cold spots. It's worked pretty much flawlessly since it's install and as for the boiler itself, this is...

Hey all My trusted Hopoint Aquarius dishwasher has started to develop a leak. The rinse aid is coming out of the unit and gathering at the base. This is happening even when it's idle and I can't cure the trickling. I noticed yesterday the rinse aid refill light illuminated far too soon. What's...

Hey all I intend to swap out the existing QD PIR in the garage for a DT. Am I right in saying doing the above is the easiest way to do the swap? I'm aware it can be done forcing the strobe 3 times. Is it advisable to just leave the panel powered whilst I change the gubbins or do I need to...

Hi all Been a while since last post. Just wanted to say thanks for the advice from the very kind & willing chaps who helped get me on my way with my TexecomPremier Elite 24. System has been working flawlessly however, over the weekend during the early hours the alarm triggered. Upon resetting...

Hey all Thought I'd give an update and use this as an opportunity to see if anyone would kindly provide some wisdom. Basically, I decided to use Zone 8 on the premier 24 panel to wire a shock sensor to the rear external door. My reasoning behind this is that it's a door with a panel so felt...

Hey all Long time lurker, first time poster so please be nice I feel I'm entering the Lion's Den ;) I believe EOL is the much preferred method as it allows the panel to fully supervise each zone and makes for fault finding much easier. The last time I did an install was literally moons ago and...
