Ah now I understand, belt and braces by removing the Flexi pipe and caping the rads off. Just seems that he didn't or not probably close the system off. Also he should have definitely capped off the rad valves just in case. But that wouldn't have helped the ensuite as water came out of the bleed valve. Water all over the ensuite floor, then poured into the main bed floor by 2 foot. New skirting and architrave ruinedno sorry I mean it was his responsibility to make safe eg cap any open end just in case anything happens (most often people remove rads to decorate and forget about capping then they wake up in the morning and find the trv has opened on frost and waters everywhere etc)
They don’t just fail like that, could understand if the filling loop was dripping but doesn’t open by its self
as it's drained down and things are open personal security just in case anyone accidentally opens the valves or they get nocked by sparkies wiring stuff etc
The system won’t fill without the flexi cap both valve ends where the flexi goes and your safe
