It's all a bit academic now. I took one of the thermostats off just now, and the internal plastic threading turned to dust. I will just shut the lockshield for now, ( spare room luckily), and replace them all later. Thanks anyway. Chris

It never occurred to me to do that. I will give it a go tomorrow. Thanks

Hi. My house has an older type of TRVs and some of them have failed and no longer shut off the heat. The thermostats have a male thread and the valve has a collar with the female thread. Essentially the opposite of any TRV I have ever seen. The brand name on them is Tyco. I would appreciate it...
