Hi
Sorted out my blocked cold feed last thursday evening, and now have 1 other job to do - am replacing my bathroom radiator as it was dripping from the bottom. All the others are fine, and I have inhibitor in the system again and gave it a good flush through the other night also.
I have bought a new radiator of the same size as the old one. the old radiator had no trv, just 2 normal valves, so i closed these off and drained the radiator into a tray and removed it.
To install the new one, i will need to fit the new brackets - but what is the easiest way of making sure the new radiators tails line up with the valves - is it tricky? I am not sure i can hold the radiator in place with the brackets on and mark the wall at the same time. Is there any other easier way i have not worked out, which i can get the new brackets to the correct height without having to struggle on my own while holding the radiator off the floor and marking?
