I'd be very surprised if it wasn't possible to "unlock" directly on the device - maybe it was easier for them to do remote access than talk the customer through it? What was the actual fault/fault code? I have a solax inverter, it does connect to the internet to email me stats, but other than that it functions fine without connectivity

I think it is meant to be vented, to prevent any build up of gas - I think there is a certain amount of leakage that is permissable and obvs you wouldn't want that to build up.

You can get heat recovery extractors. Failing that you could put a fused spur in the bathroom as long as it's outside of zones and protected by RCD - I'm not a spark, so you would need to check exact regs

Just make sure you double check how the power consumpsion compares to newer models and if you will be happy with noise levels if they have fans

Agree on mix and match if you are on a budget - though I do like being able to manage all my ubiquiti stuff in the one place Ubiquiti do the Standard 24 PoE (usw-24-poe) which is a fair bit cheaper, than the pro, but it is limited to 1G SFP and only PoE+ rather Also keep in mind not all ports on a PoE switch always have PoE

I think default holiday temp is the frost temp - this can be adjusted up to 17 in optional settings - info in the manual

Nothing bad about having a switch, I'd have it at the router end though and pull two cables for the added flexibility. I always advise pulling at least two ethernet cables if you are going to the trouble of pulling one

Do as @oliwoodings suggests, but in an ideal world you would avoid the daisy chaining of the switch / router, and run two cables from the back room to the router

If your CF WIFI router is doing the routing / DHCP etc, you will want to do: Modem -> Router -> Switch -> back room I'd run CAT6 cable (solid copper not copper coated aluminium). If the cable is being run externally you will need external rated stuff. I'd run at least two cables - one for access point and one for the PC If the proposed access point in the back room is going to be powered by PoE you would need a switch that supports this, and provides the PoE standard used by the access point

I went with Aico, but I did get staff discount through someone that works there

I'm two storey, with kitchen open to lounge and diner. I've done heat alarm in kitchen, smokes in lounge and first floor landing. Additional smoke in snug which is accessed via the lounge. I've gone central-ish positioning on the ceiling for all of them. Don't recall a reg for room size, but I think they are meant to be within 7m of the door of each habitable room, but obviously not applicable if you're open plan

Not a spark, but you should be able to do this with a grid 2 module yoke, wiring same as previous

I went with AT from jupiter blue, but I don't think they go that big. Not fitted yet, so can't comment if it was worth it

I've seen this before where switches with indicator lamps are installed on switches. Guess it could be a faulty/dirty switch or neutral is being switched rather than the line

TV, Games Console, AV amp, streaming box. or as you say gives the option for HDMI over Cat6 if you wanted to move all the additional boxes to the network cab. That said a switch can often get you out of a hole if you haven't run enough In one of my bedrooms there are two potential TV positions, so I have cables running to both, one set I have just left in the cavity to be utilised as and when I change the room configuration
