Hi all,
Set off to bleed all the radiators today at home and managed all except 1. Its about a year old and iv never bled it before. A local plumber fitted it for me as part of other work.
The bleed valve goes off at aroud 30 degrees at the top right hand side towards the wall. A normal brass radiator key fits into the hole recess but then just spins and has nothing to grip. Theres just a hole in the middle square shaped? So like nothing comes up inside the key for it to turn, it just sits flush to the hole?
Is this a special key i need for this type..or is it that theres no bit of metal been put in the valve to enable the key to grip?
Sorry plumbing knowledge is poor! Thanks anyone..
