Removing the Radiator | Newman & Hunt

Posted on February 5, 2012 by bnewman

Today was another exciting adventure for the DIY noobs. I seem to be successfully removing a radiator from the wall. Not without a lot of spurting water and confusion, but at this point the water has slowed to a trickle.

Despite living in the age of information, where there are instructions for everything, it seems that the trick is to sort the rubbish information from the good. I first consulted our DIY bible and dutifully followed the steps therin, but after a while and seemingly, a lot of water, I decided to Google the instructions. Actually, I had Meme Google the instructions whilst I held the pasta pot under the spurting water coming from the bleed valve, where we thought there should only be air escaping.

The instructions were different of course. So I switched tack and followed those. The amount of spurting water was astonishing. Eventually it all came together and the water is now drained. Now to get it off the wall.

And it’s off. Success!
