    Over 20yrs old so was thinking of getting them removed to back garden
    and given a good clean out and refitted.



    1. Double 5ft x 16"
    1. Double 3" x 20"
    1. Single 3" x 20


    About how much would that cost and would it be worth doing they being so old but they are steel.

    20 years isn’t old. Get your system Powerflushed. Washing them out in the garden is pointless. It’s a half arsed job, you re hang the radiator then refill it with dirty water again. Pointless.

    One double rad was only heating the back panel and the front panel was only kinda heating at the top. Unfortunately the bleed valve on this panel is banjacked.


    I think bleed valve on other double rad could be the same.


    Are these any good or a waste of time








    Are these auto bleeders
