A. Yes, but we suggest that you double the amount of *** to 5 litres. If the distributor / spreader tube, which directs the incoming water towards the far side of the radiator, has broken away, so that the entrance and exit are effectively only 1/2″ apart, any flushing effect on that radiator will be minimal.

Yes, but we suggest that you double the amount of FX2 to 5 litres. If the distributor / spreader tube, which directs the incoming water towards the far side of the radiator, has broken away, so that the entrance and exit are effectively only 1/2″ apart, any flushing effect on that radiator will be minimal. Conversion to opposing inlet and outlet valves is a better long term proposition.
