As part of my insane quest to overcomplicate my CH system I need to remove
a 22mm right angled soldered fitting to fit a compression one instead.

To complicate matters theres another soldered fitting just over an inch

Any tips on how to cleanly remove solder to eliminate the risk of my olive
not seating/sealing properly?

Why not take the copper pipe out of the fitting 1 inch away, and then
replace it with a new bit? The other end of the new bit will work well
with a compression fitting.

It is important that there is no water anywhere near a soldered fitting
that you want to get apart.
