    Thermostats not working

    Currently, we have three thermostats, all of them Heatmiser units. Unfortunately, one of them has experienced a short-circuit, disrupting the electrical flow to the others. While the main Heatmiser unit indicates power, the three affected thermostats are not illuminating, indicating a lack of electricity reaching them. Any suggestions?

    Installing clothes rack from angled ceiling

    I want to install a new clothing rack in a bedroom which will hang from the slanted roof side of the room. At the lowest point is about 1 metre from the floor and about 2 metres at the highest point, the angle is roughly 45 degrees too – so it seems an ideal size for a rack. I am planning on having joins that hold the rail every half metre or so, to distribute the weight - the length of the rail will be around 2 metres long. Are there any reinforcements for the weight or other adjustments I might need to install the clothing rail on my slanted roof?
