Will I need to replace the radiator if I cannot find a replacement bleed value?
When trying to drain the central heating, I accidentally broke off half a bleed value off the radiator – one half is still in the radiator but I cannot remove it using the bleeding key.
I have looked for replacement bleed values at B n Q but the nearest I can find is the radiator air vents (are they the same thing?). However I think the radiator was of an old design (15 years old and i think a cheap one, judging by the previous owner’s attitude to the house) and don’t think the bleed value can be replaced that way.
So… does that mean I will need a new radiator?
And should I get an anti corrosion kit for the new water to fill the system or is it unnecessary these days as told to me by a plumber the other day.
Hope you can help, cheers
It depends…… Most radiator bleed nipples don’t screw directly into the radiator. The bleed valve is usually a 1/2″ thread and is available from any plumber’s merchant. There are some with a 1/4″ thread too, but they are a little harder to find.
If the nipple screws directly into the radiator, you should replace the radiator, and add an inhibitor, such as Fernox MB1 or Sentinel X100, as the radiators will be old and the system probably prone to corrosion…..
