I re-sited a radiator which now drips. I put plenty of PTFE tape on, made sure olives were ok and tightened as much as I dared - but still a slight drip from each side around the valve. Now the weather has turned colder and the heating comes on there is no drip. I guess that expansion is the reason. Now the radiator is dry and warm would anybody recommend putting some sealant around the joints?
