The imperial replacements tend to be a bit more expensive and I'd like to save on costs, if I can.

Current imperial radiator measures roughly 1330mm with roughly 1420mm between pipe centres. I don't want to pull up the laminate, so cannot shift the pipes. Is my best option to get a 1300mm rad, and then use some short tail extensions? I think I will only need to make up around 30mm in total...

Really.. interesting. There are no numbers on the head.. can I replace the head? If so.. do you know what make might be compatible? I think another rad might have a similar value with a honeywell head..

Thanks for the warning.. I might play it safe and get it (and many other valves) replaced.

Thanks. I will give the spanner a go.. which part should turn the top shaft (blue arrow) or the hex shaped (green arrow) thing below?

I have a couple of radiators with these valves on both ends (no lock shield, no TRV). I think they're "wheel head valves", is that correct? Can I simply replace the head with a TRV head, or should the entire valve be replaced?

I have a new house with a mess of a heating system. A couple of the radiators have these valves which have a screw on cap. They do not seem to be adjustable like a lock shield valve (thought one does turn a little with a wrench). So.. I am wondering what exactly they are, what they're for...
