I am currently re tiling a bathroom and therefore need to remove the radiator,could someone please advise me how to vent the rad when i refit it as it has no air tap(none of the others do either).

All radiators must have air vents. If you look along the top edges of the panel(s) you will find perhaps a plastic lump. Prise this off and it will reveal an air vent.
