Hi everyone - my first time posting here, but I have used invaluable advice posted on the forums many times so thanks for that.

We have a 3 port valve in our heating system where the motor has died so I was just going to swap in a new head
The original one is a Travis Perkins ikon MA1 - it doesn't look like these are being manufactured/sold anymore so my question is - would this be compatible with a Drayton MA1 head or similar?

Picture here if that helps.

Many thanks
 
Looks like a rebadged Drayton valve . Kop

Thanks for the replies both - looks like you are right, it is indeed originally manufactured by Drayton for TP.

Unfortunately the Drayton tech says they didnt used to have the quick release mechanism for this version so it doesnt look like I am going to be able to just switch the head out like I hoped.
I may pop the lid and try just replacing the motor unit itself first rather than have to replace the whole valve though.

Thanks for the help
