I recently fitted a new radiator to our bathroom and, a few months later, have noticed that it is not level. I'd like to fix that, which means disconnecting the radiator from the central heating pipework and leveling the wall-mounts that the radiator hangs on. There are small silver pipes connecting the radiator to the central heating network. I've shown a photo of the supply side as an example, where the pipe I'm refering to connects the radiator to Thermostatic Valve.
When I undo those connections, I imagine the olives will not be re-useable? Would it simply be a matter of replacing the olives or would I need to replace the connecting pipes as well? I ask because often the olive tends to fuse with the pipe - maybe its supposed to? I'm clearly not an expert. Anyway, the silver connecting pipes came with the radiator, so hopefully they dont need replacing, or at least are easy to replace.
Hopefully somebody can help
Thanks
