what to put in a central heating system and how
10 Answers
I have decorated my house (I won't say re-decorated as the previous mess was hardly "decoration") so i removed all of the radiators. Now i put three back for the winter and refilled the system with just water as this whole project has taken me just over a year. Now that I'm ready to put the radiators back and refill the system once and for all what additive do I put in the system and how do I physically get it in there ?

You should put a rust inhibitor in the system, goto a plumbers merchant and ask them for a rust inhibitor before filling the system and tell them it's for a sealed system and follow the directions on how to get it in the system before filling.
