Thanks for that Al. Does anyone have any idea what sort of insulation it is? I guess its obvious to many of you but I don't know.

Hi Just a quick question i hope some of you may be able to help with. I was hoping to add some insulation to a loft in the next few weeks. I'm unsure if the insulation currently there contains asbestos. The house was built around 1950 / 1960 and i assume the same insulation has been...

Not sure if i've read your post properly but it sounds like it could be just condensation forming somewhere and running down the wall. Is part of the ceiling sloping? If so the condensation may form on here when the weathers cold (especially if there's no insulation behind it) and then run...

My opinion (not scientific at all) is the less the system starts up but the longer it runs the more efficient it will be. A boiler works more efficiently if it has a greater load on it. In the winter there may be no difference as its probably on for heating anyway but in the summer I expect...

Hi I've taken a few measurements of how the boiler runs. When its cold and you have the heating on for a long time after about 40 minutes running from cold the thermostat shuts the boiler off as you’d expect. I’ve taken a few measurements (after it’s been on for 1 hour, so water in system...

Hi We have an 18 year old Glow-worm Fuelsaver 65F. I had a new thermostat (the one in the boiler) fitted a few months ago and since then it’s been short cycling. This is more noticeable now with the heating being used but is still noticeable with HW only. Probably a stupid question but...

The ones which are inadvisable to use in the garage will only have one compressor. On single compressor appliances the thermostat is in the fridge part. So if it’s about 5 degrees C in garage the fridge will be ok so compressor won’t run. Freezer will rise above its ideal temp and will...
