I decided to bleed my radiators this evening about 9.30pm (not sure why). After bleeding all the radiators I got to the last one which was a towel radiator.

Whilst using the screwdriver to bleed the rad the whole valve also turned and water started gushing out.

I went to tighten it back up but the O ring got twisted and would;t let me tighten it. In the process of tightening the valve up I managed to snap of the top bit of the valve rendering the whole valve useless .

In the end I drained the whole system and refilled it back up, all the rads seems to be working fine apart from the towel rad. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I can buy a replacement valve and best way to to fitting this. I have combi vaillant system. :cry:

cheers
