leak at manifold

[flyfto]

fitted living room radiator last night and then discovered a leak at the manifold under the floor boards, the pipes have all been soldred
but i possibly nicked the 10mm pipe whilst wrestling with pipe to fit too new radiator !!!!

will this have to be re-soldered ???
also was thinking one of these may be used, has any one ever used these

I would avoid using one of those. Where exactly is the leak? perhaps you can take a photo and post a link.

it is on the right hand side bottom pipe going into manifold, the one you just cant see

Thats an unusual ABV!!

You can buy a new brass manifold. Cut the pipes flush with the old manifold and clean up the pipe. Then resolder.

Looks like the pipe going between them is a bypass?

Maybe the installer had no cap ends !!

what is bypass for ???
