Last night I turned off the rad valve in preparation to remove the rad for decorating the room. Once I turned off the manual valve it started leaking. Basically, the valve itself has sheered off. I had to drain the entire CH system last night to stop the water.
Question is, is it possible to buy just the valve or do I need to buy the entire rad valve inc the housing?
If I want to replace the manual valve with a TRV, is it a direct replacement, or do I need to remove the tail from the rad?
Thanks
