Hi,
I have an old radiator in the kitchen next to the fridge, which is understandably off, that I want to make sure is closed at both ends.
At one end there is the regulator (wheelhead valve?) so that's fine - that's obviously off.
At the other end there is a plastic cap. Under that there is a nut (well like a nut, but closed at the top - not sure what these are called - blanking nut/screw?). Undo that with a spanner and underneath in the recess is a screw. I haven't done anything with the screw. So far no water coming out.
What is this valve and how do I know if it is closed?
Quite possibly it is already closed, I just want to make sure.
Thank you.
