I am planning to install a heated towel rail in my bathroom. There is already a radiator there and and piping. First, I need to remove the old rad to make good the wall underneath for painting. Is there an easy way to remove the rad and cap the pipes while I sort out the wall underneath. I'm not concerned about being without a rad in the bathrrom for a week or so. I'm a complete novice with plumbing but pretty good with DIY in general. I am going to get a plumber in to install the towel rail but it seems a waste to get one in just to remove a radiator as well.
