Managed to get a pic of the top of each, I assume they should be identical spec units as I'll order replacements? Wont do any harm to replace both at least I'll know the history from here on.
Will have to drain the system down again to fit three more new rads in a day or two - Im dreading the airlock scenario, but will also fit a bleed valve in place of that stop end.
Theres no way to avoid or lessen the air locking is there? Im assuming the primary circuit (HW) and heating circuit are wholly linked within the boiler and theres no way to prevent the primary draining and just work on the heating circuit? Nothing that will somehow divert/shut off/isolate the HW circuit? Im well out of my depth but just thinking aloud ...
