Hello everybody,
I have just fitted a new Stanley Brandon 100k oil fired cooker and
need to change the old moterised valves, i have a sealed system
and do not know how to drain and refill if i have to or if there is a simple
way around this, :?:

Then how did you fit it to the system.?
hi gasman.
thanks for your interest,i should have said a plumber fitted the
new one , i have to replace old valves because they only have
two wires and the new ones have five so i can heat water
without heating rads.hope this makes sense to you.
 
I think Ben is more asking a question of why the valves weren't replaced when the cooker was installed, as presumably it would have been drained down for this.

i did not know i needed new valves and nobody told me until the guy came to commision it,when i called the plumber he said it cant be done
but i think he just will not admit he missed it .
 
In answer to your question sealed system just screw down caps on any auto air vents. release the pressure and it should vacum up quite quickly usually after a few pints of water has come out then change on valve at a time
