Hi All,
Already removed rad for decorating.
I want to reattach the rad - I have a lockshied and TRV. The nut for the lcokshield-rad connection has no olive - I think it's called a ground fitting - so no probs connecting that I hope.
However, the TRV has nut and olive. Do I need to remove and replace olive, wrap PTFE around olive or just tighten up nut?
I'd like to just tighten nut - will it still be watertight with the "old" olive? Don't wish to wrap PTFE if at all possible in case I need to remove rad again in the future.
Thanks all!
P&D
