I want to unscrew the drain cock of my central heating system. But the drain cock is so rusty and couldn't be unscrewed. Is there another way to drain the system? Thanks for helps!
 
if its the only one on the system and its siezed you could use a self cutting drain tap, then you can either leave it on the system or cut out the existing one and replace that.

Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
