I am due to get a new cast iron radiator to replace my existing knackered one. I’ve done a bit of youtubing and I think I sort of know what needs doing. I would be grateful if you could check my to do list let me know if I got it covered?
Turn off the boiler and let the system cool down
Drain the system from the radiator by the front door + turn the lave back off
Take the existing radiator off
Move the T copper junctions to correspond with the new radiator connections
Connect the incoming (the thermal valve) and outgoing pipes
Refill the system – is there anything I should do other than open the water tap on the boiler?
Add Corrosion inhibitor – how do I do that?
Have I got it covered and what else do I need to do to avoid problems
Thanks
