Capping off radiator above the floor, please advise.

[Lumen]

Hey guys,

Quick question for all the I knowledgeable plumbers out there.
I need to remove one radiator which is first in line, as that room is being knocked down. Unfortunately I can’t cap off below the floor as it’s tilled. What’s the best course of action here?
Cap it off above the floor (will that not create air locks in those pipes?)
Join these two pipes together for continuity, but will I be able to get flow for the other two radiators down the line?

Thank you for any advise on this!

Compression cap ends but surly it will cause a tripping hazard?

Also if it’s being knocked down the floor will have to be patched ?

Thank you for your reply Shaun.
The part where radiator was, will be boxed in, but I'm not sure what's best:
1. Cap the tails off 30-40cm above the floor (these will trap air?)
2. Join them for continuous flow, will this reduce the flow for the 2 radiators down the line?

Thanks,
Lumen

Can’t join them only option is to cap or lift the floor and remove the tees

I thought so, thank you for confirming. How much of an issue will it be if the pipes are roughly 40cm above the floor, this isn't too much of a concern for air lock etc...?

Be fine you could put some air taps / vents on top but as your boxing it in no point as these won’t be accessible
