How to uninstall a stove?

    Hi,

    its a 13 kw with boiler. Inch pipes out the back. Old system and there is a valve on the pipe to the cylinder. This vavle is only 3 turns open. The cylinder is direct and the oil also pases through this valve. Its balanced I suppose to give major priotity to the heating system. 13 rads. When the oil heated up the rads the stove used to get hot too but plumber replaced the non rtn valve and did some loop pipework so now its fine.
    Why am I telling u all this?
    1) Well my q is if I close or open this valve to the best position?and I loosen a pipe at the back very quickly and then plug it, is it feasible to do it without draining down the system? I know I will lose a certain amount of water but I really do not want to drain the system.
    2) Leaving these pipes pluged is ok? Or do they need to be joined together?

    Tks a lot,

    Eamon
