Hi I have seen lots of posts on removing a radiator permanently from the system but I am not sure if my system is a 2 pipe or 1 pipe system. I want to remove the kitchen radiator completely and take the pipe work back under the floorboards and either cap or join it together.
we have a combi boiler approx. 2 years old when fitted the plumber changed some of the valves for TVR's ( most in fact ) one nearest boiler is not a TVR , the one in the bathroom also was not a TVR and I have since removed that and replaced with a towel rail as needed more space for a bigger shower tray. The kitchen one I want to remove has no TVR's
How do I tell if this needs to be either capped after rad removal or if I need to join the pipes.
This one is the lowest point and has the drain plug I was going to leave that attached as may need to drain in the future. When we had the boiler replaced the system was checked and power flushed it is old (rads and pipes ) if that makes a difference. Any help would be appreciated as want to do this at the weekend.
