Towel rad valve

[deuce22]

Hi.

I have 4 towel radiators in my property and seem to be having problems with the valve that is connected to the flow pipe.

It feels as if they are jamming up and I cannot open them.

Any advice.

Thanks.

if you can get the fancy caps off there is usually a square spindle underneath

work it gently back and forth with a 6"" wrench

think you'll find them ones are splined rather than a square kev.

Hi.

I can get the chrome covers off easily and there is a splined spindle and a nut holding it in.

I've unscrewed the nut to try and loosing spindle, but I cannot tighten it back up.

Could the pressure stop me from doing this or is it something else.

Thanks.
