appliances
A home appliance, also referred to as a domestic appliance, an electric appliance or a household appliance, is a machine which assists in household functions such as cooking, cleaning and food preservation.
Appliances are divided into three types:
small appliances;
major appliances, or white goods;
and consumer electronics, or brown goods.This categorization is reflected in the maintenance and repair of these types of products. Brown goods typically require high technical knowledge and skills (which get more complex with time, such as going from a soldering iron to a hot-air soldering station), while white goods may need more practical skills and force to manipulate the devices and heavy tools required to repair them.
Am I the only one struggling to find appliances' manuals online? I know it's hard enough with cookers and old gas fires but I've just been unable to find the manual for an Ideal Exclusive. I thought I had found it but it turns out the GC number was different.

Still training so unable to post this in the GSR forum but I don't think it contravenes the no advice about repairs rule, my apologies if I'm wrong.
Question is what's the rational of taking readings over a two minute period for a metric meter when one sweep of an imperial meter can be about 40...
Can anyone confirm if chimney flexi flue liners can be used on different gas appliances?
i.e remove the flue pipe from an open flued gas boiler and fit gas fire in its place, utilising the existing flexi flue liner and chimney pot?
I know you cant use a gas flue liner for a solid wood...
Good morning to you all.

Don't know what make/model the fire is but it's a LFE type with a brass surround. The boiler is a Potterton Suprima that's years old, and the flue...
