hi guys,
im looking to cut copper pipe underneath floorboards leading to the imperial radiator thats currently there. can someone advise on best solution to my problem?
i cant bung the tank because whoever installed the water tank in the loft leaves me no access to get into it above. the only way i can see is using a selfie stick with a phone to view any issues from above
i know your going to say just drain the system etc... but i also have another problem.... whoever installed the small radiator in the dinning room has the drain valve behind the skirting board :/ i have been told that these drain valves are temperamental meaning it might spring a leak or something and due to position its not something i want to really get bogged down with!
so, is there a way to cut the pipe with the water still being in the system? im assuming that my pipe are imperial and was told to use an imperial to metric straight coupler 15mm. i will upload photos to show what i intend to do, hopefully my diagram will help
you will see in the photo how my current waste was setup.....notice the ubend being higher at one end!!!! lol it was terrible.
what is the tolerance of a drop from bath to u bend under floorboards to stop a syphoning effect because if i opt to have my s bend above floor this is how it will look (see photo) or i can drop straight down beneath floor boards and have my ubend there please advise.
i know im asking alot of questions for my first post so please forgive me!!!
thanks for help in advance
