Drain Easy kit
Features
The Drayton Drain Easy kit comprises two
durable rubber plugs, a tie and a radiator
bleed key.
It is designed to facilitate removal of valves,
repair of leaks etc. on an open vented wet
central heating system without draining
down, consequent loss of inhibitor, and risk
of major air locks during refilling. It can only
be used where the header (feed and
expansion) tank is no more than 30ft (9
metres) above the lowest point in the
system and only one break in the system is
being made at a time.
The most important benefit of using the
Drain Easy kit is to allow easy replacement
of standard radiator valves with energy-
saving TRVs. Thermostatic radiator valves
such as the Drayton TRV4 offer substantial
reductions in running costs over normal
valves, coupled with improved comfort as
room temperatures may be set individually.
It is also a valuable emergency kit which will
allow various repair and maintenance jobs
such as the replacement of failed pipes,
valves, radiators etc. to be undertaken
quickly and easily.
Fitting
The specially-shaped Drain Easy plugs are fitted into the cold feed and the
expansion pipe of the feed and expansion tank.
After releasing some inherent pressure in the system with the bleed key supplied,
and building up a vacuum by allowing water to flow for about 1 minute, any
single item such as a pump, valve or radiator may be removed without further
loss of system water/inhibitor.
