    Funny enough I was looking at Danfoss smart valves and came across these during the research. If they live up to the promise they will be great.

    Thanks a mill - not sure what that means - I’d imagine , maybe can be put in either end of rad - complete non plunber - reasonable handyman !!

    Just a follow up - can you put a TRV onto the end of the radiator - that currently you use to turn the radiator on/ off - without additional plumbing required ? I.e. empty the water - pressure down system - bleed it etc -
    Thanks a mill

    No m8 you will need to fit a new valve to accept the TRV head, so drain down is needed.
