I need to install an oven, gas hob and extractor hood. I note that the oven says it needs a double pole switch but it doesn't say what amp it needs to be? It...

Ho Yin To answer your questions backwards: The gas hob and extractor take a trivial amount of power, I'd guess at 10W and 100W respectively. Use either a fused...
Craig, Are house is over three floors, four if you count the loft... The lowest floor is a full basement (fully under the ground). We did install UFH in most...
I know nothing about floortiling, over wet underfloor heating in screed.What ive gathered so far is I need to use Bal rapidset flex adhesive, Its rapidly...
Just looked in the manual. It is apparently 2,500W. So if this being the case a simple 13 A plug socket should be fine. Just need to make sure it is a double...
I found these guys to be a lot cheaper: http://www.trades-direct.co.uk/modules/shop/products.asp?rangeid=104 Though they don't have the rapidset, but they...

There's another way, by relocating the plug on the outlet and having the level sensor fitted to a hidden standpipe. The sensor then doesn't need to be pretty...
I like it - best yet (IMHO). The standpipe could even be capped, the rise and fall would be different but would still be there and measurable (this because I...
Yep, good one ... maybe be could be visible, & marked in litres or even GBPs ! wonder what one would choose for the valve ... great thing about traditional...
if capped, might have to be removable - might need an occasional brushing-out ! ? maybe the U-bend could be downstream ... we were thinking of using Hep2Vo (if...
