The Cyltrol (1 inch Angle type) on my hot water cylinder is starting to seep when adjusted and so I intend to replace it with a new one. I'd be grateful for some advice on the following points.
1.
Is it necessary (or even advisable) to drain the cylinder (obviously the CH would need to be drained)?
2.
Is replacing the Cyltrol likely to be problematical (e.g. damage the union with the cylinder) meaning that, maybe the cylinder should be replaced anyhow (that would not be good news). OR should it be a pretty stright forward job?
3.
Any other points to watch out for?
Thanks.
