Hi Everyone,

I hope someone might be able to help please. I hope this isn't a daft question.

I am trying to remove the side panels on my radiator to get in to clean it, but they seem to be secured by a small screw underneath (on the valve housing).

Can someone please advise me if I can just remove this screw to remove the side panel or is there any water pressure behind it? (Same on the other side)

I have attached a photo of the underneath of the valve housing showing the offending screw.

Thanks for your help!

P.S. The site wont let me upload a photo - keeps saying the file is too large. Sorry, hope someone can still help.
