Pegler Terrier II TRV's fitted to my radiators are failing to open or
close because the pins in the valves are sticking! I have noticed
that in each of these valves there is a hint of leakage so I suspect
that rust/limescale is causing the pins to stick.

I will be replacing the valves with a different make to ensure that I
don't "imagine" this problem again.

they stick again!


When you finally get fed up with them, ditch them and replace them with
Drayton TRV4s ' in a recent survey, 8 out of 10 uk.d-i-y'ers said they
preferred the taste'
