  1. So we have an approved installer that's not in the trade section ?
  2. Why do I think there may be some truth in that?
  3. I've trialed this last year , and although I can't remember the details, decided not to pursue it .
  4. Most decent installers will monitor false alarms and subsequent root cause, this would then lead to product sourcing. Most others just buy the cheapest...
  5. Pay attention to the lights on the detector when walk testing, they will tell you if it's PIR or MW that is activating.
  6. The MW usually has a pot to adjust it's easy identifiable. Turn the MW right off and then slowly adjust back on until it covers where you need it.
  7. I remember K band military being a revelation .
  8. As long as it's a good quality detector and there are no temperature fluctuations or draughts then a PIR would be OK, however for the difference I would use a DT.
  9. And looking at the box I'd check for water damage....
  10. Buy cheap buy twice.

    Adt codes

    There's plenty of help on here, but the posting of engineer codes is not allowed, sorry.
  12. I read that as 'stop talking' need to stop drinking.
  13. I hate local radio DJ's
  14. They are usually OK as normal in a hallway, takes a little more movement usually but fine in most cases. Have a look on Security Warehouse for texecom stuff.
  15. Yes beneath the coving level and cable up and behind.

    Adt codes

    Yes thanks, next question.
  18. I believe they are extra, I'm personally not a fan of ceiling mounted PIR's (on a bracket) and prefer them in the corner as they were intended.
  19. Texecom has by far the best DIY support.
  20. Seems Dick is still angry...

    Hello

    Hello and welcome
  22. A Timex and a Patek Philippe both tell the time so in that essence they do nothing differently.
