    Improving control, oil boiler C Plan

    I have the Honeywell Evohome system installed here and it's great, saves a lot on gas compared to when I had 1 stat in the hall. The user interface is very well designed and intuitive. I highly recommend it, far better than Nest or HIve etc. if you don't mind the initial cost.

    All the wiring here is all over the place, the cables are not near anything or in any zone, not that that maters with MI. Here is some conduit from the same place, was buried in the wall. Twin cables in one end singles out the other, inline crimps inside the conduit. And why bother un-plugging...

    No these are fire alarm cables. We called out the fire alarm company who have the maintenance contract for this system, but the chap they sent out had never worked with MICC before so I had to do something to get it going again while they send someone else out tomorrow to rewire the damaged...

    Probably doesn't meet the EU efficiency standards without the fancy controls. Fortunately the newer Dimplex Quantum heaters are more reliable.

    Help with a Ninja Foodie. Weird error code.

    I recently repaired a food steamer with a similar problem, some times working, sometimes shutting off. The fault was a failed electrolytic capacitor in the power supply.

    Heating programmer help please....?

    Yes, gravity mode is not used much now, (thank goodness) it was for old systems where the hot water from the boiler convection circulates to the hot water cylinder through large pipes, without the need for a pump. The pump only being used for pushing the water through the radiators. This is not...

    Got a call to look at lights flickering/not working sometimes. Thought I'd start at the consumer unit, took the lid off and was greeted with this! Note only one conductor is clamped in the terminal of the left hand ring, and the main neutral from the second RCD to the right hand neutral bar was...
