I realise that this is a "how long is a piece of string" question but suppliers answers are questionable, to say the least. Read More →

Is it possible to have both systems running in a house e.g underfloor heating downstairs and radiators upstairs. As I understand it they both run at different water temperatures, so would this have an undesirable effect on the whole heating system? Read More →

It’s just an idea, but wouldn’t this work: My house is built on pillars, and skirting closes the space underneath it off. I want to weld up a meandering system of pipes in a closed loop, filled with water; and somewhere in the loop, I would install an instant water heater. That heater would heat up the water and keep it pumping around, and since the intake water temperature would be rising ever higher, it could probably run on very little energy – maybe low enough to be fed only with a 400W wind turbine? I’d love to hear your opinion on this. I know nothing about plumbing or heating, but I’m an adventurous guy and will try this sort of stuff unless somebody advises...
We’ve already had it laid but the electrician never used matting. The cabling used was industrial and not domestic like the sort you get in B&Q..could this be the reason that matting was put down first off. Bob it is laid in a bathroom where the floor is very cold to walk on.. we have tried everything believe me it is freezing. Read More →
My husband did the floor tiling using the correct adhesive, thickness etc, but some of the tiles keep lifting and the cement will not dry out evenly. After two attempts and lots of expense we are at a loss as to why this is happening. It occured to me that the person who installed the heating perhaps ought to have laid it with matting over the top of it. The installer says not, but what else could be the cause of the cement not drying on some of the tiles. Some have dried out perfectly well and are fixed others are not. The concrete floor has the correct screen and was not damp prior to laying the tiles. Does anyone have any ideas please? Before we both go loco. Related Blogs Related Blogs...
