This fella is easily one of the best channels on YouTube. I bet all the jobbing plumbers and sparks come here when they want to know the real tricks of the trade! I wish my dad had made videos like this when he was around. 🙏🏽 God bless you Dereton33

thanks for the video Derek really easy to do I had room to change the basic valve over to a tvr with a bucket so any spillage in the bucket 👍

I like to open the TRV and release some of the pressure out of the central heating system. Great video as always 👍

You’re a legend. There’s things available now that better help snatching. Rubble bags, absorbent mats(nappy mats) etc. good stuff fortune favours the brave. I like rubble bags easy to manipulate around pipes etc

always wanted to do it this way. i just dont have the nerve unfortunately. Great video as always

A really helpful video thank you! Sadly the two troublesome valves I have are stuck open, so I can't do this. But I wouldn't have known if you hadn't mentioned this in your video. Time to get a plumber out! 🙁

You can also drain the radiator by closing both valves and using the drain valve integrated into the lock shield valve. But you have to fully drain the radiator in that case.
