    Help!! Diagnosis help. Hotpoint FETC 70 dryer

    Yes, it could be working, but a blockage somewhere is stopping the water getting away. However, the fact that it's warm could be a "red herring" as the whole area and waste water are warm. If you are sure there is no obstruction anywhere then it's not really worth servicing as a replacement...

    Help!! Diagnosis help. Hotpoint FETC 70 dryer

    Hi if the pump motor is getting warm then that could indicate that it's working, and that the problem is a blockage, (usually fluff) somewhere. Check that the pump impeller and outlet hose to the water container drawer are all clear first before buying new parts. Your diagnostics do indicate...

    Travel time being averaged

    Seems to be some confusion here, so let's assume you are using company transport that you take home. If not, then, as mentioned, remuneration for milage/ wear and tear etc come into play also. I suspect this policy was original introduced to compensate the employer for you not having to get...

    2 way & intermediate pir is there such a beast

    I Are you fitting pir in place of the switches? Do you have n at the switch? Is it a given that all lights are operated from all switches, or can you zone them? I would remove switches, wago in on position, fit blanking plate, then remove each light fitting and fit a pir in best position...

    Cable zones on a staircase

    I think I would go for something like this View: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pack-10-MiniSun-Decking-Kitchen/dp/B00A4DQ93U And fit them in the stair rail, say every other tread. Take the wiring down underneath. Far better option, particularly if you have a cupboard under like in the photo.

    Are my x2 2.5sqmm cables suitable for a 5kW E/W system?

    You are right. My error. I should pay more attention.

    Are my x2 2.5sqmm cables suitable for a 5kW E/W system?

    No. 2 x 2.5mm csa does not equal 5sq mm. That's why people overeat, they think a 12 inch pizza is only twice the size of a 6 inch pizza. It's four times the amount.

    Recommendations for metal cable fixings

    I'm surprised the planners didn't go with black conduit. Make it look like drain pipes, there are loads of them on those grade 1 buildings. Even Jane Austin centre and Great Pulteney Street.

    Fire Sealant

    Fire stopping regulations are more about internal spread from room to room, or across party walls/ floors to other properties. However, it does no harm to consider the consequences of fire travelling from one side of the hole to the other. Is there a shed or storage or bins etc. that , if on...

    school caretaker worries

    It's not county council Westie, it's an academy trust. The more they can shave off the running costs then the more they can pay themselves. See this article (not a paper I normally read, I might add)...

    school caretaker worries

    Ok. Thanks for the response. In "just doing my job" you have a responsibility under H&S law for any "Act" or "Omission" so if you are aware of a potential danger you can't just ignore it. Also you can't be victimised for bringing it to a supervisors attention. However, as with all employer...

    school caretaker worries

    You can't be dismissed for whistle blowing. If you have genuine concerns for safety then you are quite right to raise them. (See below) Did you, by any chance, apply for the maintenance job and failed to get it due to lack of qualifications? (3) What protection does the law provide to...
