hi all,
I have a radiator in my hall which I turned off last year, for a reason. It kept leaking. I foolishly forgot this and went to turn it on yesterday and now can't get it to stop leaking no matter how hard I turn the tap towards the "-".
I've narrowed it down to coming out of the bit which the tap fits on to: the white arrow is where the leak is coming from:
I was advised by some people not quite as clueless at plumbing as me to unbolt the bolt on the left perpendicular to the radiator, but when I started doing that water went everywhere so I don't want to persist really as I'm not even sure that was the correct advice.
Any advice is very welcome please! I will happily seek a pro
