Hi,
I need to remove some radiators for redecorating and went to try and shut off the valves either side of my rad. I have TRV on one side and on the other side I noticed a blank top with no valve or peg sticking out that allows you to turn on or off (see pictures). I checked the other rads in the other bedrooms and noticed most of them have a peg sticking up on the return valve that allows you to turn with an adjustable wrench.
The problems rads (two of them) don't seem to have an option to shut them off? I tried a flat head screw driver in the top but they would not turn, even with WD40 and some brute strength.
I have not seen these valve types before so hoping someone can help me out here.
Thanks in advance!
