  1. Hi

    Can anyone point me in the direction of some installation diagrams for a free standing woodburner.

    It is intended to take the flue straight through the ceiling (there will be no chimney ) into the attic, and then at approx 50 degrees for 2 mtrs and connect into an existing chimney.

    I am aware of regulations concerning distance from combustibles etc, but am having difficulty in finding all the bits and pieces in one place, so a definitive drawing might help me source the materials from different suppliers.

    regards, and have a great year!
  2. Hi

    Just out of interest, this type of mail is actually pretty safe, although annoying.

    Generally the originators are hoping you open the message and are then interested by what they are trying to sell you.

    Since sending bulk email is frowned upon, and ISP's will shut you down for doing it, the alternative is to spoof addresses etc, and send mail using methods which hide the originating locations, or at least make it too costly for providers to track them down.

    At the end of the day the majority are trying as many ways as they can think of to get you to read their offers.
  3. [quote user="Jazzer"]Since 15 december I have recieved 17 email messages purportring to come from my own email address. I have not opened them and they sit in my Spam box.I have not opened any of them, and therfore can only assume that the whole name is the same. They do not appear in my out box. Any thoughts?[/quote] Two people cannot register the same email address, but if someone wants to use yours there is nothing to stop them. Its quite easy to send email messages, showing they came from another address, just delete them. You can also block incoming mail from your own address then you should'nt receive anymore. Once they find out the messages are not being delivered they will probably delete your address from there spam list.
  4. [quote user="Anton Redman"]I thought Carbon Monoxide was dangerous/actively poisinous but Carbin Dioxide was UK.[/quote]

    The Dangers of Carbon Dioxide

    1000ppm 0.1%

    Prolonged exposure can affect powers of concentration

    5000 ppm 0.5% The normal international Safety Limit (HSE, OSHA)

    10,000ppm 1% Your rate of breathing increases very slightly but you probably will not notice it.

    15,000ppm 1.5% The normal Short Term Exposure Limit (HSE, OSHA)

    20,000ppm 2% You start to breathe at about 50% above your normal rate. If you are exposed to this level over several hours you may feel tired and get a headache.

    30,000ppm 3% You will be breathing at twice your normal rate. You may feel a bit dizzy at times, your heart rate and blood pressure increase and headaches are more frequent. Even your hearing can be impaired.

    40,000-50,000ppm 4-5% Now the effects of CO2 really start to take over. Breathing is much faster - about four times the normal rate and after only 30 minutes exposure to this level you will show signs of poisoning and feel a choking sensation.

    50,000-100,000ppm 5-10% You will start to smell carbon dioxide, a pungent but stimulating smell like fresh, carbonated water. You will become tired quickly with laboured breathing, headaches, tinnitus as well as impaired vision. You are likely to become confused in a few minutes, followed by unconsciousness.

    100,000ppm-1,000,000ppm 10-100% Unconsciousness occurs more quickly, the higher the concentration. The longer the exposure and the higher the level of carbon dioxide, the quicker suffocation occurs.

    HORAIRE 8,71 Euros (57,13 F)

    For that she was supposed to do 4 rooms an hour...if it took longer she was only paid by the 4 room an hour tarif.

    After all it is unskilled unqualified work which is looked for by many to make ends meet.[/quote] 

    I totally agree with you; I'm amazed what some companies charge![/quote]

     What some companies PAY! I guess you meant?

  7. Hi

    The satellites are always ok, so that eliminates that question.

    If the equipment is ok, decoder, cable etc which it sounds like it is since you are receiving other channels no problem , and if there were something new in the way you would be able to see it easily since to affect the reception of the dish it would be less than about 50 feet away.

    Ruling that out, then your left with just the alignment of the dish, which I would guess is the cause of your current troubles.

    [quote user="tj"]So that makes you a Jewish Goy ![/quote]

    Nope, sorry, I don't get that.

    You obviously know the translation of Goy?, which is rather more offensive to the rest of us, save for most dont know what it means, ( since in the Jewish book Goy refers to all people who are not Jewish or who are not practicing ) than the use of the word Jew.
