Radiator Removal
My mum has a small room with two radiators in, don't know why they were in
when she bought it. One radiator is permantly switched off, the room gets more than 'comfortable' with the other one on. We think the previous owner made wine, beer or something similar. My question is, can I remove the radiator and cap the pipes off under the floor? The radiators are T'd off the main pipe run. I think the answer is Yes but I just thought I'd run it by you lot first as a check. Cheers John |

Cap off as near to the tees as possible - or even replace the tees with straight connectors - in order to avoid long stub pipes which might trap air. You will, of course, have to drain the system - at least partially - to do this work. -- Cheers, Set Square ______ Please reply to newsgroup. Reply address is invalid. |
