Hello,
I have a Myson towel radiator to which I have added one their electric heating elements (basically a straight, 500W, kettle element) part number MHK500.
To fit this I removed the existing lock shield valve and matching radiator fitting (sorry don't know the proper name - it's the fitting that screws into the rad and has an internal Allen key drive and a captive compression fitting nut that mates with the lockshield valve) from the towel rail and replaced with the Tee fitting supplied with the heater.
I then screwed the original radiator fitting into the horizontal Tee outlet as advised, fitted the element and valve and remade all the pipework to meet it.
Problem: the junction between the Tee and the rad fitting weeps. I have tried no PTFE, some and lots of PTFE to no avail. Currently some of Mr Fernox's magic stuff is keeping the drips at bay, but . . . . .
So, what have I done wrong?
TIA Richard
PS anyone who says that I shouldn't have bought an MHK500 will have to answer to my dad after school!
