Hi, could someone please advise me about what I need to do to fix my one year old leaking towel radiator from Screwfix. One of the valves at the bottom developed an intermittent drip and now the other has joined it. The first leak was usually remedied by adjusting the valve but neither seem respondent to that now. It has seemingly worsened since bleeding the radiator a few days ago (from a seperate valve at the top). Thanks.

is it coming from one of the nuts?
I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the terminology but potentially yes, both. If looking at the radiator, it is bled from the top left using a key. At the bottom of the radiator, joining the pipes, are two adjustable knobs, both of which are leaking.

You need to be a bit more specific - dry with some loo roll and tell us exactly where the water is coming from>
1/. Where the valves' tails enter into the radiator
2/. Where the valve body joins the valve tails
3/. Where the pipe joins the valves
4/. Where the control knob enters the valves.
Either way, start by getting a spanner ant tighten up what you can.
