I put inhibitor to my heating system last month. Instead of making a special tool like yours, I pour the inhibitor direct via the vent of the towel rack in my bathroom, the vent holes of towel rack are usually at the top rather at the side, hence we can pour the inhibitor without any special tool. Firstly, I drained the water in the towel rack down like you did, then poured the inhibtor into the rack at the top with the help of a small funnel. This could be a simpler method to most layman like me.
Undoing the bottom connections would stress me out too much, I'd probably just get narrow flexible hose and use the siphoning principle to the water out (measuring of course). Then there's less chance of post-filling leaks.
Your descriptions are always really clear and easy to follow. What I like is the explanation of why each step is essential and what happens and what to do if it doesn't go as planned. Sure you wasn't a technical instructor in your past life?
I am happy with plumbing, but i have to add if i was not i would come here, your steps and guidance are so simple to understand and showing the piece of the rad would help others some fly by these yours are perfect
Best DIY video I've seen in ages. Clear and easy explanations, plus definitely making up one of the filling pipes, which is far better than the plastic one I purchased. Look forward to seeing more videos. Great job 🙂
I agree with all of tye comments below - a very good video with clear explanations of what is going on. Your channel is a great help to all of us DIY plumbers.
Excellent videos. Im an avid fan of the Adey Pro MagnaClean. Simplicity itself to introduce an inhibitor to the system. No need to touch a radiator. Just drain off some water from the boiler. Remove the top of the Adey Pro and pour straight from the bottle into the Adey Pro chamber. Using an inhibitor and the Adey Pro my system is ultra clean. The yearly inspection/service clearly shows this when the Adey Pro top is taken off and on the 'magnet' there's nothing and the water in the system is almost drinkable.
Just seen your comment after writing the same method myself. My plumber showed me how to do it (before he moved out of the area). As you say, simplicity itself.
19 years in the trade, never thought of doing this. I usually use a hose with a rad tail and a funnel. I really like this idea as there's now risk of spilling any. Thanks!
If you’ve got a magnetic filter attached to your boiler/CH system it’s even easier. Just close the in & out valves. Unscrew the top and pour in the inhibitor. No tool manufacturing required! Otherwise this is a great video and technique for those who don’t have one.
Great video. I did exactly this in the summer when I took every radiator outside and cleaned them out! 24 rads!!! Remember, 1 bottle of inhibitor might not be enough... They say how many rads they typically do on the bottle. Also remember it doesn't last forever.... I usually drain my system, replace the inhibitor and top up with new water every 3 years.
Out of interest -- I know it's a how long is a piece of string question -- how much do you think a plumber who have charged you to remove 24 rads, clean them out, refit and balance the system? I wasn't aware they needed cleaning that often, mine haven't been done at all in 17yrs, so I'm a bit concerned now...Although, never had any dramas with them.
Today's radiators are too thin and restrictive . Old radiators (Mison style? ) never needed cleaning or inhibitors. Parents house central heating still working after 50 years when we sold it after they passed.
The optimum liquid to refill the system with would be deionized or distilled water. Also there is no reason one could not use automotive radiator fluid in the system. It too has rust inhibitors in it. It might be cheaper than a specialized radiator inhibitor.
Interesting approach. I simply isolate the header tank (vented system), drain the tank, then chuck the inhibitor in the tank and open the isolation valve.
Don’t you take out from the system more than just what’s in the head of tank? I like to make sure that I’m not only empty the tank. I also empty the system of quite a bit of water then using a pipe feed it directly into the outlet from the head tank and the container contents will be sucked right down into the Central Heating system.
Great video !!! I would also suggest removing the radiator covers before doing this job for 2 reasons. First, it actually gives more room, especially for pushing toweling etc around the bleed valve. Secondly, it avoids scratching them - I noticed that there was a lot of scratching around the cover over that top plug.
Great tip and video bud. Another way is adding inhibitor via the magnetic filter hopper which most have these days. I plan to remove my sludge filled rads in the summer fkr w good clean thanks to your videos.
Clever little tool! You could use a funnel ( you can get one that has a plastic flexible hose at the end ) but it's a lot messier than what you showed so I'll be making one of these for sure!
Alternatively if you have a towel rad in your bathroom just pour it in the top with a funnel, no need for that fancy tool. Also no carpet to get wet either!
Ive been doing this task for over 40 years and its always good to watch someone else show their method. Spot on demonstration. Ticked every box for me. Well done. Ps I might have used a tank connector in the bottle cap ??
Just used this vid to put inhibitor into my system for the first time; made a pipe tool siilar to yours which resulted in minimal spillage -other spillage still happened due to other reasons, but oh well. Definitely recommend this method for anyone inexperienced with heating systems. One question I would ask is how long should I wait until I next put inhibitor in my system? Should it be every X amount of time, or only when I start to see problems again?
Top video gezza, With your help watching this and other ones I've managed to help my mom with her changes to her new bungalow, renovated bathroom kitchen and the living room so thanks again 10/10
How often should you be adding inhibitor and or topping up in the system, do you need to use the full container? Another informative video , thank you 😊
To refill the rad, i usually only open the TRV until it's filled then open the lockshield, as for the filling tool, i used a fitting for the rad blank to copper then upright to a 54 x 15 reducer as a funnel.
Can you please elaborate on balancing the rads. You counted the number of turns out on the left hand side valve so as to put it back in the same open position. Surely adjusting the thermostatic valve on the right hand side also effects balancing?
If the house has a towel rail there is no need to make up a filler with a flexi hose as the inhibitor can be tipped into the top of the towel rail after it has been drained. I always like to hear new tips eeven after 30 years!!
Or go to a bathroom heated towel rail, shut it down , undo one of the top facing blank or bleed nuts. Stick a 10mm pipe in and remove a litre. Then simply place a funnel and slowly pour in the inhibitor. Only a spanner and funnel required.
You made us laugh in this video talking about nice dish and in the previous video talking about nice curtain when you do plumbing !!!!!! Now i know who is on top in your house... hahahahahahahah; bless you man !! Highly informative videos, thank you. This also i am going to do in my friend's house....what about sticking in a water - hose pipe with a plastic funnel to fill !!?? The idea is the same, but equipment may be simple !!!!
I’m genuinely uncertain about these videos. To a professional, this is a straightforward job. You make it sound and look easy, which unfortunately gives the average DIY enthusiast the confidence to undertake such a task. However, in reality, they often fail because you can’t buy experience from a video! The number of callouts I attend because of videos like this is astronomical. But thanks, you’re keeping me busy!
Using the normal used filling position would also work. Connect the filling hose to the CV side and fill the hose from the other end with the inhibitor fluid, then connect it to the closed water fill tap which you use for normal filling. Open the tap a little, then open the valve on the CV side. The inhibitor will be pushed in the CV system, followed by regular tap water. No special tooling needed and no possibility on radiator leaks at the end.
Not sure about Sentinel, but most other brand bottles are the same size as an AdBlue nozzle thread. Then a couple turns of PTFE on the spigot side and it fits snugly into the rad thread 👍🏻
I started using a £8 hand pump (fuel transfer pump) through the top of the rad to drain slightly more than the additive volume as there is less risk of a leak from a damaged olive that way.
I always use my wet/dry hoover, with a towel under the valves and then a Funnel with a short but long enough piece of hose .end of the funnel fit into hose, hose goes into top of rad/towel rail usually as much that can go in 6 to 12 inches depending on rad and fill take seconds ,but that is handy and tbh i doubt i'll ever use it, I may far far into the future have a need for something similar and as an old school plumber i have made many gadgets to get around situations many are single use but have come in handy for another situation...
Yes the bathroom towel rail is the easiest way. First isolate the radiator by closing the valves then take the plug out on the top and with a tube syphon out approximately a litre of water into a container and then add your inhibitor to the radiator, top up with level with some of the water you removed replace the plug open the valves and your done.
If you have a magnaclean, which most modern systems should have you can isolate the magnaclean drain it, clean the magnet of any debris fill with inhibitor and reseal the magnaclean before opening the isolator valves and turn on your boiler to circulate the inhibitor
Great stuff. We live in an area where the water is quite high in limescale. The rads have been bled but the ones up and downstairs furthest from the boiler are quite cool even when the heating is full on. We'll be giving this a go very soon.
Thats what the same number of turns on the lock shield bit is about. Research ‘radiator balancing’. You restrict hot flow to the rads nearer your boiler by closing the lock shields on them a bit, so that hot water makes it to the furthest ones. This guy has a video on it! ua-cam.com/video/7NsZ2d2Oups/v-deo.htmlsi=ZzQqzzByU0wtTIN_
Hi I got rid of the black stuff from all my radiators by taking off all 9 of my radiators and flushing out with a hose I put all the radiators back tightened up all the valves as you said in your video you open the air valve before putting in the inhibitor do I do this to all 9 of my radiators or just the one thank you in advance by the way keep up the good work👍
A nice way to do this is to add extra height pipes above the height of your radiators in your home upstairs connecting to the Flow and Return Central heating pipes maybe in an Airing cupboard with a connection to attach the additive and a air release valve
Great Video, very helpful. how often should you add the inhibitor on a combi boiler? will plumbers do this on a service every 12 months, don't know if mine has any at all ? how can you tell.
Top man!!! When I learn anything new regarding plumbing tips it makes me smile you sir are so generous sharing info keep up the good content. New Subscription added
Hi great video! Perfect for what I need. I'm replacing a radiator and need to add inhibitor, i was gonna add a 1 litre bottle? Us that too much, would 500ml be better? Can you add too much? How much is too much? Thanks 😊
Just out of interest how often should you replace inhibitor or is it just if some or all of the circulating water has been emptied and refilled. Thanks
Great video and keep them coming, but would probably have been better to use a radiator without radiator extensions on it, as to the uninformed this may of been confusing

Undoing the bottom connections would stress me out too much, I'd probably just get narrow flexible hose and use the siphoning principle to the water out (measuring of course). Then there's less chance of post-filling leaks.
That's the way I do it too.
Amazing, this was my plan with similar gadgets😊
I use the magna filter reservoir. It comes off easy. Just empty it an refill with inhibitor repeat if necessary.
Best vid I've ever seen on the subject!. No boring introductions or explanations, straight into it and very professional. Well done
This guy is absolutely brilliant! A natural explainer.
Great video! After discovering what a waste of money my Corgi plan is , I have found these videos brilliant. Thank you.
A really great tip and wonderfully clear explanation and demonstration. Excellent video camera work and editing, too! Thanks so much for sharing.
This is what youtube was made for. Bloody brilliant stuff, cheers mate!
Well buddy UA-cam was actually made to make money but these are bonuses 😊
Its two quid extra for one with an end on it in the shops 😂

I use a garden weed sprayer, put an adapter on the end pump it into the top of a rad or filling loop job done

I add inhibitor via my FERNOX TF-1 magnetic separator. It's far less palaver. No messing around with rads.
Do you mean pouring inhibitor to magnetic filter? I can't google magentic separator
Never heard of the plumb tub before, that's on the shopping list. Another great video, thanks and well done.
I think this has to be one of your best tips yet Cameron. Great video, see you soon.👍👍
Awesome! Thank you!
That was a great instructional video - thank you
I have to say, mate, that you bang out some excellent videos. I've found loads of useful info which I've put to good use, so thank you very much
Your welcome 🙏
Good tip, thanks. I use a 22mm socket to undue the blank plug. It reduces the risk of marking the radiator paint.
what a bloody marvellous video. Sort of thing everyman should know.
Or woman.
I'm a man and I'm sick of knowing everything about DIY. I'd rather kick back and let women do it
Very helpful and confidence inspiring. Thank you!

Yeah your right however this is a more generic method in a sense as not everyone has towel rads
Came here to say this, so much easier
This is what I do too.
The highest radiator in the house, or doesn't it matter?
I thought the magnetic stick 🧲 thing went into bathroom towel rail. ?
Ive been doing this task for over 40 years and its always good to watch someone else show their method. Spot on demonstration. Ticked every box for me. Well done.
Ps I might have used a tank connector in the bottle cap ??
Thanks a lot. Yep a tank connector would work a treat
Love these tips and short cuts. Reminds me of the series of short programme in the eighties that provided tips for DIYers and tradesmen
Thank you for this video, I am adding 7 new radiators and didn't know about this stuff. Really appreciate this knowledge as I am newbie
Great video. Always wondered how it was done. Definitely going to make one of those tools as I'm going to need it for future jobs 👍

Awesome info, I've always wondered if there was an easier way of adding inhibitor fluid to a rad, know I now - thanks pal!
This is a really good way of filling up with inhibitor thank you. You mentioned the “balancing of the radiators” how do you do this please. Thanks.

Thanks for your supporting video
Very helpful video thank you
Nice concise video.
Can you take some water out using the hose outlet on the boiler filling loop? Then top up using a towel radiator if you have one?

Can you get inibiter and leak sealer as one unit or do they come as separate items
Excellent information video! Thank you very much! Be Blessed!!
Great idea, but how is the bottle vented as it will pull a partial vacum and come out very slowly if at all?🤔
That was brilliant. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! Do you need to switch off the boiler before carrying this out?
If you have a magnaclean, which most modern systems should have you can isolate the magnaclean drain it, clean the magnet of any debris fill with inhibitor and reseal the magnaclean before opening the isolator valves and turn on your boiler to circulate the inhibitor
That’s such a clever homemade tool!
I poured anti freeze into the header tank in the loft. Easy.

I suggest every year, two max. However if any work has been done such as a drain down then sooner 👍

Thanks. Fair point
@@TheDIYGuy1 ....but I will still be stealing this hack 😁👍
Hah run with it 😊

I have a towel rad so easy for me but I do agree this is a great idea.
Yes! Thank you!
