Draining rad circuit in reverse maisonette

[Best]

I would be wary of having hoses lying across ground and pathways for some clown to trip over and try to claim from you.

Indeed it's a busy part of town too. A drill pump into the bathroom seems like an option if I can't get a decent symphonic route, can get drill pump for £20

Drain all you can with a hose, then use a WET VAC.

And before you do any work in the lower level, check you can safely get out through a window in an emergency.

And if you're going to be using a blow lamp, a Fire extinguisher would be handy to prevent that possible emergency in the first place

Try not to get any sludge on the beach, don't want that on my budgie smugglers.😎

Why not drain the top half like normal and the bottom half into a few buckets via a rad valve. Won't take long at all.
