What to expect from our radiator valve replacement

A TRV is a self-regulating valve that adjusts the water flow into your radiator based on the air temperature in the room. This clever device allows you to maximise the efficiency of your heating system, providing different levels of warmth across different rooms in your home. You can find detailed information here if you'd like to explore more about TRVs.

When you choose our thermostatic radiator valve replacement service, here's what you can expect:

System Shutdown: The skilled plumber will begin by shutting down your heating and water systems to ensure a safe and controlled environment for the replacement.

Drain-Off Location: Locating the drain off is crucial. This step ensures that water won't leak onto your floors during the replacement.

Old Valve Removal: The plumber will carefully remove the old radiator valve to avoid any damage to the surrounding area.

New Valve Installation: We'll then expertly fit the new radiator valve, ensuring it functions correctly.

System Reboot: After installation, we'll turn the main water supply back on and proceed to bleed the radiators, removing any air to maintain optimal heating performance.

Leak Inspection: The plumber will conduct a thorough check of all joints and connections to guarantee there are no leaks or issues.

Why consider replacing your radiator valves

Whether you're dealing with a faulty radiator valve or need to replace an old one to comply with new regulations, our services can help. Starting from June 15, 2022, new regulations in the UK require heating systems to meet certain standards, with the installation of thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) in most heated rooms being a key requirement. This update ensures greater energy efficiency and comfort in your home. Note that existing working TRVs do not need to be replaced, but if you're unsure, consulting with a skilled plumber can provide clarity on your specific situation.

Frequently asked questions about our radiator valve replacement service

Q: Are thermostatic radiator valves worth it?

A: Absolutely, thermostatic radiator valves represent an unquestionably valuable addition to your central heating system. They deliver a compelling trifecta of benefits: cost-efficiency, operational efficiency, and enhanced comfort, all while ensuring long-term savings for your household.

Q: What's the distinction between a manual radiator valve and a TRV?

A: In essence, a manual radiator valve functions akin to a faucet, affording manual control over heat output by permitting or restricting water flow. On the other hand, a Thermostatic Radiator Valve (TRV) elevates your heating system with automated precision, continuously adjusting the flow of hot water into the radiator in response to the ambient room temperature.

Q: How much does TRV installation cost?

A: Our pricing structure is hourly-based, ensuring that you only pay for the precise duration of the plumber's installation work. The final cost hinges on the number of valves requiring replacement, with a direct correlation between valve quantity and installation time.

Q: Can thermostatic valves be installed on older radiators?

A: Yes, indeed. Thermostatic valves can be seamlessly installed on radiators regardless of their age or make.

Q: Can all radiators accommodate thermostatic valves?

A: While it is technically possible to equip all radiators with TRVs, it is advisable to leave at least one radiator devoid of a TRV and set it to a continuous heating mode. Ideally, this radiator should be situated in a bathroom or the room housing the thermostat, ensuring optimal heating control.

Q: What is your service coverage?

A: Our services extend across the entirety of the London M25 zone, offering comprehensive coverage for your convenience.

Q: What is your availability?

A: Our services are available 7 days a week, from early in the morning to the early evening hours. Booking our services is a breeze, thanks to our real-time availability feature.
