Thanks for your reply although all I was looking for was some advice, as I was soon was wanting to have a new boiler fitted (not by a cowboy) and like to do my own research first. I was wanting to stick with Worcester as having used there products in the past I have always found them a very...

Hi, Am i correct in saying the heat output to the central heating can be adjusted on these boilers to lets say 20KW. And does this have any affect to the DHW output (37KW)

Thanks, can you still buy these tools? If so any idea's where.

Yes i want it to look the same as it was done years ago, Keeping the cut back angle into the bead, this has been the problem. Before re-skimming the rooms if you looked at the edge of the angle, it was a near perfect vertical edge but once over skimmed these edge's were a bit messy. I wondered...

Was there a tool a plasterer used to get that near perfect angle when finishing into a traditional wooden corner bead. I have a old cottage and want to keep the original beads although the walls need re-skimming. Previous plasterers i have used never seemed to make a neat job of these beads.

Well lads i wasn't out to up set anybody i didn't realise it was a touchy subject. Thanks anyway, ps it wasn't the fact a roll was to expensive more the fact i only needed a few meters and the rest would have gone to waste. I dare not tell my mate the electrician he was only trying to help.

This problem has gone on intermittently for ages although i changed the coilpack/leads and plugs recently and touch wood its running 100% better and no warning lights yet. Quite a cheap job so its worth trying. This problem seems to be inherant to clio's cannot wait to get rid and never buy...

Thanks again, at least i've not wasted my day then routing cables through the house.

Thanks for that oh well will have to buy some cable after all then, just one question how does it interfere with the broadband i thought the broadband came through a different cable.

Wanted to extend my virgin phone line to another room. The main incoming cable is a 3 core although only the blue and white's connected, i've put in a extension cable in which was given to me its a 4 core, blue,red,green,yellow, i'm guessing i'll only be needing two of these. The extension box...

Can anybody tell me if you can buy a 7 Day 2 Channel Programmer for the hot water and heating, such as the Honeywell ST9400C but also with a inbuilt thermostat control so i can program different heating temperatures at different times. I have seen the Honeywell 7 day programable thermostats but...

A mate of mine has a problem with his ideal classic ff240 boiler it fires up ok on demand for either DHW or CH although after approx 2 mins the boiler switches its self off and won't restart for a good 5 minutes. Every thing else seems to be working fine ie pump/motorised valve. The flow is...

Can anybody recommend a decent pipe freezing kit as i want to remove a rad without draining down the system. Was looking at the Rothenberger 6.4020 Rofrost Handy Pipe Freezing Kit as i don't mind spending a few quid as i'll need it in future.

Got a sealed heating system and i've attempted to inject some sentinel x100 into the top of a rad exactly how i was told by the merchant and the instructions on the tube and yes its ended up everywhere but in the radiator, surely there's a better method than this ? There are no towel radiators...

Do you need to do anything with these valve heads when fitting them on the return side of the radiator like you would with Danfoss TRV'S. I notice numbering on the black plastic valve head is this for balancing.

What type of cable do Virgin Media use to install tv,broardband, telephone, etc into house's, as i want to put in another tv point. Is it just normal coaxial cable

I've got a 5"(outside dia) clay sewer pipe, and am needing to cut into the middle of it to connect in a new 110mm gully. Are these rubber clay to plastic adaptors what i need to be using both ends, or is there a better alternative ?

i'm needing to replace a 22mm gate valve on the cold feed to the cylinder, is it ok to use a full bore quarter turn Pegler ball valve instead ?

yer Cheers its one of these fein multimaster tools i've seen in the past although is there a cheaper alternative

I've got numerous wooden door casings to cut around, ready for tiling. I've seen people using in the past a type of angle grinder with a blade attatchment but I do not no what these are called or where I am able to purchase one. Any suggestions please?
