    Damp issue help required

    Hi folks, We've moved some furniture around in out back room and found that the carpet underneath was rotting. I've lifted it up and found that there's a section of carpet edging strip that's disintegrated into a dust. Is this dry rot? disintegrated-carpet-gripper1 by spatchtadley posted 17...

    two showers on one combi (split thread)

    Right Tony, I have got myself a pressure gauge. I put the gauge on our outside tap, then run the upstairs bath cold tap at full tilt. The gauge showed 64 psi / 4.4 bar with the tap running. Turned off the bath tap and the gauge showed 115 psi / 8 bar. I hope this means something to you...

    two showers on one combi (split thread)

    I've decided to forget about the second bathroom for a while and get the first one done. When I eventually refit the second bathroom, I can decide whether to fit an electric or mixer shower. Now I have a different question. I've been researching my options for the various shower types and...

    Thanks Tony I'll see if I can get hold of a pressure guage so I can measure this.

    two showers on one combi (split thread)

    I want to do a similar thing. We have a Worcester 40 CDi combi boiler and what I think is pretty high water pressure. I'm hoping to run two mixer showers on this system. Couple of questions... 1) are some showers better at dealing with changes in water pressures - for instance if...

    Washing machine blown fuse - cause?

    Changed the fuse in the plug. It's not blowing any more. Now, when you switch it on, the red power LED comes on, but nothing else happens. Turning the program dial doesn't do anything - no hums etc I'll start with the door switch.

    Washing machine blown fuse - cause?

    My Whirlpool washing machine keeps blowing the fuse when we press the power on button. Any ideas where I should start to diagnose the problem? Is there something common which causes this? Model No: AWM321 Code from back of machine: 8570 321 15611 Thanks Al

    Whirlpool washer only spinning for 3/4 seconds

    Thanks breezer I left the washing in and ran the gentle spin cycle. This worked OK. I then removed the washing and ran intensive spin. This worked OK. I then put the washing back in and ran intensive spin again. This worked OK. Have you any thoughts on that!!?

    Whirlpool washer only spinning for 3/4 seconds

    We have a AWM321 washing machine. After the last few washes we've done the clothes have been very wet. When I checked the rinse cycle, it fires up for a fast spin, then after about 3 or 5 seconds it stops. The machine then rolls the washing over again for a few seconds before starting another...

    Whirlpool w/m not filling fully

    The machine doesn't have many switches... An on/off button A rinse hold button A temperature dial A programme dial That's all there is. It has a auto half load feature. We always put in full loads, so this will never get used. How does it detect half loads? Is it possible to bypass...

    Whirlpool w/m not filling fully

    Thanks folks I've located the pipe now - the picture was a great help. It's a narrow rubber tube about 8mm wide. I took off the sensor at the top and blew down the tube in case there was anything blocking it. It seems to be clear. I was thinking though... The tub DOES seem to fill...

    Sorry, I should have said - its a AWM 321. I don't think it's a sophisticated model. The programmes are controlled by dial you turn clockwise to the programme that you want. Cheers Al

    Whirlpool w/m not filling fully

    I took the back panel off and had a look inside. I couldn't see any pipe that meets this description. In fact, I checked where all the wiring went and I couldn't see anything that went to anything that looked like a water level sensor. There was wiring to the motor, the door catch...

    Whirlpool w/m not filling fully

    A while ago we noticed that our washing machine didn't seem to be rinsing the clothes that well - there are often streaks of powder on the clothes. Today, after the machine had completed it's wash cycle and last rinse, I noticed that it still had a lot of bubbles in the window. I ran the...
