Remote TRV

[stevedo]

Hi, I have 2 radiators that get hot at the top and not at the bottom, so I guess I need to remove the radiator and flush out the offending sludge. However, these 2 radiators are controlled by \\\"remote\\\" TRV\\\'s i.e. there is a dial attached to the wall and a capillary tube from there to the valve attached to the radiator (the reason for this is that the radiators are enclosed in an in-built enclosure). My question is, how do I close off this type of valve in order to remove the radiator.

Thanks for any advice
Steve

They would have come with "decorators caps". Call the manufacturer, they'll send you a couple.

you take the sensing head off and fit the decorators cap
(which you havent got ) i assume

Your assumption is correct. We moved into the house in April this year and I wasn't left any caps. The units are made by Danfoss. Do you think I could get just the caps from them?

Thanks
