Currently, I turn my heat to 58 degrees when I am at work and turn it on high a cpuple hours before I get home. Is this ineffecient from a cost stanpoint. Would it be better to have it on all day?

The radiators on my system are about 30 years old & the bolier about 18 years old. I want to fit a combi boiler but have been told due to the age of my old system & I have to have new pipework & radiators, a complete new system. The engineer told me not to flush out the system as the combi boiler would break within a year. I have another engineer coming out who says flushing out the system is fine but I may need some of the radiators replacing but not the pipework. Who do I believe?

I live in an apartment building and have already told the leasing office. The manager said he had the water tested and nothing came back out of the ordinary. Then he said he put tablets in the water to make it fresh...or something like that. But now the smell is back and worse then ever! Could they be running me around with answers? What can the problem be and what should I do about it?

What causes this? Is it poor installation or the window itself?

Initialy, when both the hot water and central heating were both selected on, the hot water would heat up but the central heating would not come on until I moved the actuator from auto to manual. Called a plumber who changed the actuator (£110). Now when both the hot water and central heating are both selected the central heating comes on but the hot water will not heat up unless I turn the central heating off. Changed the thermostat but no difference. Checked all the wiring from the pump, actuator and thermostat which appear to be OK. The Plumber has given up and I'm on my own! The heating system is fairly new, the house was only built 4 years ago! Any thoughts?

Hi
I am having a wedding coming up and the hall I rented does not have a dance floor. I am seeing if I would be able to make one myself. Does anyone know exactly what i need (type of wood, polish,...) and how to make it?
Thanks

Additional Details

1 day ago
I also inquired about renting a dance floor from various companies, but I'd much rather build one so I can also use it when other family members of mine get married

I suspect people will laugh but I'm not sure what that air thing in the kitchen is called. You know the thing you turn on right above the stove; it sucks all the steam and humid. I need to know what it's called. Thanks =)
