Looking for Nottingham plumbing company to test a new radiator lifting device

Blimey just looked it up, 5.5kW and 100Kg if it was a 600h.

Or leave the centre one on the 2 middle adjusters, then Hang the rad and tap the bracket up into place from the bottom then remove and drill the other holes for the bracket

Nah , some rads maybe , when you get a 3 m double on the wall , you only want to fit it once lol

One end on drill box, other end onto bracket then lift other end off drill box onto bracket.

For a biggy I have two little timber frames one for each end. Place these perpendicular to wall - sitting on my little hedgehog airbags,rad on them - slide/walk rad to wall then a couple of pumps on the airbag and onto brackets- works for me.
I do a similar thing for most wallhung pans too.

Pi$$ weak attempt at helping someone Fellas.

More help is given to DIY'ers ( no offense to them ) for doing their own plumbing and heating than to this guy.

This guy is offering a free item for evaluation by experienced plumbers to try out.
All he wants is some professional advice.

Maybe his OP should say DIY'er wants Plumbing Company to test radiator lifting device.
( No offense to DIY'ers )

All everyone has done is bag him and come up with other ***bersome items already available.
Maybe he knows that and has come up with something no one has thought of.

I'll guess we'll never know, because, if I was the OP, I would have dumped this forum after the first couple of replies.

Why not help and assist the bloke?

He has come to the forum for advice on something that may actually help plumbers and heating installers.

I'm sure he didn't come on here to be berated or ridiculed about something he wants advice on.

Then again - this site is for Professionals giving their advice to non professionals on how to plumb and heat their houses - For Free!

My rant. I'm over it

 

[Ben-gee]

He asked for someone in Nottingham- that obviously counts out most of us.
If you re-read , we are in fact mostly saying how we approach this task at the moment, which is surely helpful or at worst redundant information for the guy.
I personally wish him luck, as I stated in my first post.
