I need to remove a upstairs rad for decorating and unfortunatly my heating system with a Combi by Nefit, does not have rad isolation valves. I want to check is my plan on doing this makes sense.
1) Turn off boiler and gas to boiler make sure all rad valves are open
2) Check water temp is lower than 40
3) Open system at the refill valve to drain, lowest raditor is underground.
4) Let water out as much as possible.
5) open highest point rad vent to let in air.
6) remove radiator and seal with end pieces feed and return lines
7) Close rad vent valve.
8) Connect water inlet.
9) Fill system and check for leaks fill to manual pressure,
10) Bleed rads check system pressure re fill if required
12) Open gas valve, turn on boiler
13) Start up boiler as per manual
14) set temp at themostat at warmer than normal (25 C) let boiler run to temp.
15) re bleed and check pressure
16) reset to normal running conditions
Cheers
