Radiator installation advice

[Magsrob]

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.

Guy spent two days trying to install them but the water has been gushing out from the valves of each radiator as there was no resistance when he tried to tighten them up. He has moved a hall radiator along & switched the pipes. I am worried this will make a difference to the heating.
