CAN I REPLACE A TRV HEAD BUT NOT THE VALVE?


RT212

It can sometimes be necessary to replace the TRV head to provide improved control or to simply enhance the radiator appearance and this can be done without changing the entire valve body.

TRV heads can be purchased separately and the thread connections on Drayton TRVs allow for the interchanging of heads. It’s a simple upgrade that’s quick to carry out, but remember, not all heads are compatible with all TRVs, so make sure you check first.
