    Room Thermostat: Would I Benefit From Optimum Start/Stop?

    I will have to experiment like you said and maybe trial it over a few weeks.

    Room Thermostat: Would I Benefit From Optimum Start/Stop?

    Wouldn't that cost a lot of money though to keep the heating on, even at a low temperature? I would say around 16 degrees is probably the lowest I would feel comfortable at but from what I've read, the ideal temperature range is between 18 and 21 degrees, or is that just for the few hours you...

    Room Thermostat: Would I Benefit From Optimum Start/Stop?

    Thanks for letting me know. I think for the time being I will leave it set as it is and not bother with the optimum settings. I did try the optimum start and set the thermostat to 18. Normally the heating would come on at 7am as per the program but with optimum start, it came on around 5am, to...

    Room Thermostat: Would I Benefit From Optimum Start/Stop?

    Hi, I just moved into a new house and it has a Glow Worm Compact 24c combi boiler and a ESI ESRTP4RF+ programmable room thermostat and I am wondering if it's worth turning on the optimum start and stop features? There is also something called TPI (chronoproportional control) but I'm not sure how...

    Cleaning Toilet Siphon Jets?

    Hi, I have just moved into a new rented property and have noticed that the toilet doesn't flush all around the bowl, the water is mainly at the back and so the front and sides hardly get any water flushing round them. I have looked into it and I think the siphon jets are either blocked or very...

    Which Dual Flush Push Button Do I Need?

    It looks like one of the springs inside the mechanism has perished and so it's allowing one of the rods to slip back down (also the rod's tightening nut is missing so it's not held in place properly either). In one of the photos I provided, you can see the right half crescent button is lower...

    Which Dual Flush Push Button Do I Need?

    I'll see if I can find one. Like I said, I went into a couple of local plumbers merchants and they seemed to either not be bothered or actively try to get me to buy something more expensive that I didn't need and suggest I needed to get someone in to fit (followed by the blokes mate behind the...

    Which Dual Flush Push Button Do I Need?

    Hi, I have a dual flush push button that needs replacing (or perhaps just the rods only) and I don't know which kind I need or where to get one. I don't know which make or model toilet I have as there are no markings on it other than "L34" stamped on the underside of the cistern lid and what...

    Noisy Tap

    Hi, can anyone help me identify what's causing my hot water tap to be so noisy? I have made a short video which can be viewed here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9RfozGmRjt9cnI3Y3BvcHFNdk0 This is in the sink in the bathroom and seems particularly bad first thing in the morning but can...
