No problem.

Thank you for sharing this video, really helped me put my radiator back with brackets.

[@dereton33]

You're welcome!

[@chafford7591]

Great video, however you need to repeat it to include the important part where you missed with the camera. That aspect is very important. The bit where you are measuring the bracket to the tip of the radiatot.

Thanks --nice and n gentle pace and no beating drum music (hooray) suddenly making me jump... I need a couple of new rads and wondererd hwo to do the measurement --once ive done one it will be as clear as mud....keep them coming sir..

[@dereton33]

Thanks.

[@willmurphy6663]

Thanks my friend, brilliant as ever... like people said for the less skilled a bit more time on the brackets...it's just all makes sense to you, as your so experienced...

[@dereton33]

Thanks Will.

LSX is also great for sealing threaded joints, especially immersion heater threads.

[@dereton33]

Thanks.

Great Video, Can I just add that I measure from the lowest rad valve out of the two first, This is because sometimes you don't have enough play in the pipes to fit the rad if one rad valve has more slack than the other. Hope this helps.

[@dereton33]

John Z Thanks John.Al.

How about an olive removal tool, they usually work well on old copper olives, but brass ones tend to be well dug in and need splitting and there's a tool for that too. But they usually leave the pipe damaged so it needs cutting off and then extending again. And don't forget you must get the wall plugs and screws into hard stuff, or else the rad will soon fall and flood the place if you screw into soft stuff which is all too often present in far too many walls, I should know as I used to fit kitchens. This is especially true with old houses like mine with old random stone walls which tend to have infuriatingly large soft areas which you can't see because of the plaster!

[@dereton33]

Thanks Mark.

[@MrJasdog107]

Very helpful video got a rad to hang and connect to a fixed pipework.

[@dereton33]

Glad it helped

[@jackjill3205]

The important bit of measuring for the bracket not shown on the vid ... bit confusing

[@pakhtooni]

Very nice video. Thanks you made it so simple to understand. God bless you

[@dereton33]

Thank you.

[@kamranraja9197]

Hi where you missed the camera do. Measure from centre of the white radiator bracket or silver bracket and why did you move it up?

[@dereton33]

You might be better to watch this again.

They do still sell hemp, you have to learn how to use it with jointing compound to join steel pipe

[@user-gb2gq8lb3s]

How much do plumbers normally charge for installing a radiator?

[@dereton33]

Anywhere between a hundred to two hundred ponds.

[@cragly8759]

Where is the best place to purchase your radiator online? Need to purchase same as in your vid and a heated towel rail.

[@dereton33]

Got mine from Screwfix.

I am getting new radiators and new Window boards. Is it best to do the radiator first or doesn't it matter?

[@dereton33]

The radiators.

[@googleuser5299]

[@Rehan-xs2ej]

Sir i have a question that is it econmical to install it and easy to mantain this type of radiator at home rather than installing firewood stove or gas heater ?

[@dereton33]

Yes a better bet all round.
