I purchased three new Milano Aruba Radiators to replace my old ones. The plumber has spent two days trying to instal them and it has just been a nightmare as the water has been gushing out from the valves of each radiator as there is no resistance when he tried to tighten them up. He has used tape and plumbers mate without success. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
