Hi folks,
I have to disconnect the four pipes leading to two radiators in order to re-route them. I'm looking at pipe freezers to avoid having to drain down.
Screwfix sell a "Pipe Freezing Kit 220ml" for £10, which will do one freeze. I will do them one at a time. Do I simply need four of these kits?

Or can I use one, plus their "Commercial Pipe Freezing Refill 700g"? I gather the 700g refill gives ~7 freezes, so at £20 it's £3 a freeze rather than £10 - if it is compatible with the jacket in the kit.

(One kit + 1 refil is only £10 cheaper than 4 kits, but I get 4 "free" freezes which are bound to be useful later.)
Thanks!
