The black geyser! Back when I was an apprentice I did this exact thing in a customer's bedroom. Unfortunately they weren't planning on redecorating and also unfortunately the very black water sprayed all over the bed. Not my finest moment. The customers were great though and took it well and the sheets washed OK. I had to paint the wall though.

Great vid Tom. That system was dirty. I done that when 10mm pvc return loop was blocked on heating system. I removed the lockshield on bathroom radiator which was totally seized so couldn't check return flow at that point in the system and as the other return pipes in the house were totally blocked and i had tried forced air pressure to try and unblock which didn't work, i got complacent with the bathroom return and assumed that would be the same. I removed the valve and got a 1 foot jet of water into my eyes and couldn't see s^^t as a result but managed to locate valve back on with my eyes shut. Love your vids as always. Great stuff mate!

I was a sparky but then took on plumbing as my second trade after people started to ask me if I could fit showers, hand wash units, outside taps, sinks and bathrooms etc. Many people were more frightened of a water leak than they were of electricity, (me included) at first, so they wouldn't mess with water themselves. One of the things I always carried in my tool box was a self cutting washing machine tap that was brilliant if I had to drain a 15mm pipe that I wasn't sure about. I was a bit of a coward unlike you and Tiff who just dive in there. I used that old tap just earlier this year when I was draining the heating system down so I could take out a radiator. I just connected a washing machine hose to it and shoved into the shower cubical and it dripped all day long. I also made a gadget for draining 22 and 28mm pipes that involved drilling a whole in the pipe, just didn't take any chances. Control and containment is my motto in life. Thanks for the great vids mate.

Thanks for the support as always mate, I like the idea of using a self cutting valve to drain a heating system, to be honest I normally take a rad off to drain down but this one back fired on me, I think we've all had a moment at work where wish we could turn back time, thanks for watching as always mate, have a great weekend 👍

Hi Tom the trials and tribulations of being a heating engineer . A few years ago a got sent to a leaking rad valve on a 2” mild steel one piper in a old church in the vicars office. I just touched the valve body with my grips and the valves body just fell in bits and started to squirt dirty heating water everywhere ( Black Death ), behind me in the vicars office was he’s white most holy ceremonial robe and several photos of him meeting very important people like the then pope , Desmond Toto and Nelson Mandela, and now these items have been covered with Black Death. You can laugh about it today but at the time it’s a different situation. Keep Spannering
