Hi all,
I'm in the process of relocating a radiator, and as I'm a relative newboe, just wanted to check a couple of things if you'd be so kind:
Firstly, i have bought a new TRV / lockshield valve pack (one of these to be precise): http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav.j...onsSpecificProductType=valves_and_accessories
In the pack though, both of the valve bodies are identical - is this right? i would have expected them to be different?
Secondly, i am installing a length of copper at the radiator end of both pipes for cosmetic reasons, and between this and where I am cutting into the exosting pipework, intend to install plastic. My research suggests using plastic pushfit fittings should be fine to join the copper to plastic, but I would be interested to hear any experiences of this from people on here.
Many thanks in advance
