Leaking thermostatic radaitor valve All aspects of plumbing questions and answers, help, tips and information

[p4t]

hi,

a thermostatic valve on one om my raduiators has sprung a leak. I removed the head and noticed the water was dripping from around the pin. I tightened the nylon nut holding the pin in place which has seemed to stop the leak.

Is this good enough or would you recommend replacing the whole thing

many thanks

p4t,
Leave well alone and see if it leaks again.
