Hi
Can someone advise me if it is better to try and loosen an old immersion heater while the cylinder is still full or should you always drain it first? I wondered if a full cylinder provides some protection against distortion while attempting to unscrew the old one. I have searched these forums and saw only one comment suggesting leaving the cylinder full.
(I need to replace both the main heater and the top-up heater)
Thanks.
