Hello to you all.
Whoever fitted our CH draincock did in such a way that it is completely inaccessible . It's at the rear of the boiler and the only way to get to it is from underneath and even then you can only get your hand to around 6 - 7" away from it due to the bottom of the boiler therefore you can't use a 3-way key as per the norm.
My question therefore is does anyone have any suggestions as to what else I could use to open/close it? My previous attempts at opening it have resulted in the edges beginning to round off and a small drip of water every now and then. I therefore want to tighten it up again but don't want to damage it so need to get it right first time.
All suggestions (apart from take the boiler off the wall and then get to it) will be gratefully received!
