Hi

Has anyone (successfully) installed one of these squishy rubber/silicone diverter valves in a vertical radiator?

Is there a technique because it seems like some sort of key hole surgery - even when I get it past the third element, I can't get it to seat properly.

The instructions say:

"When the radiator has a bottom water inlet and outlet and more than 6 ( mine is 8 ) elements (Fig2 - see photo) fit the rubber cap C on the nipple N and after the second or third element. You can use the handle of screwdriver to help you."

It's a fondital Garda s/90 vertical radiator (https://www.radiators4u.co.uk/infinity-aluminium-designer-white-vertical-radiator-h1866mm-x-w660mm/)

Thanks
