      Hi mate, a mountain being made out of a molehill by a few here to be honest, get some bi directional valves and put them on, Danfoss ones are usually bi directional and it is far from the end of the world if they are the wrong way...

      I wouldn’t recommend the iso valves as there restrictive eg small bore either full bore or some lockshield gate valves

      Also, washing machine hoses could be an option because they are the same thread as my existing valves. I'll buy a 2 metre hose and attach to both valves and see what gets hot first as they'll only be on for a few seconds.

      Generally the air vent (on the rad) is on the opposite side to the flow so use that as a guide.

      Not if it’s one of mine I always fitted the air vent on the end that couldn’t be seen when entering the room for aesthetics

      The valves by Reina are said to be non bi directional so linking the two pipes together will tell who's who :)

      Hi all I removed a radiator off the wall and forgot to note what valve was the flow as I'll be replacing with a new radiator with a trv. Without putting back and re connecting how can I tell what pipe is the flow and what pipe is the...
