I am trying to fit a towel rail in replacement of a radiator in my bathroom. I have taken the old radiator off whilst decorating, and simply used the valves either side to isolate it. However I now which to change some of the pipework to chrome and install new valves. The problem is, the CH is fed from a Combi, and so to my knowledge this indicates a pressurized system, probabyl just under 1 bar.
My understanding is I need to switch off the boiler (controls etc) and close the incoming water supply, then take the values off, and allow any water under pressure to drain?
Fit new pipework and valves, the towl rail (with vents open), then allow water back into the system (not sure how, but assuming there is a top up tap/service valve near boiler?) until rad is full, then close rad, and allow pressure to climb up to 1 bar. Then bleed rad?
Power up and I am on a winning, or am I just about to break something! Help please
