Looking at plumbing in a couple of new rads on a pressurised two pipe system. Would it be possible to freeze the 22mm flow/rtn pipes successfully without damaging system enabling me to cut pipes and plumb in new rads without draining system ?

Many thanks for any advice/top tips !
 
Yes, but practice first, it's really awkward if you cut the pipe and it hasn't quite frozen. You have to more or less start again.

If you release the pressure and shut all the AAVs, you could probably do it without freezing.
