Any suggestions on how to loosen 100 y/o bolts on older Radiators? I have a one pipe steam system with a leaky unit. It seems simple enough to swap out a Radiator but I can’t seem to loosen the nut that holds it in. The valve was replaced recently (I just bought the house) it’s new and I can see the teflon tape that was used. Any tricks to getting these thing off would be appreciated.
Thanks -
If your talking about the rods that hold the sections together just use a sawzall or bolt cutter THEN separate the sections so it is more manageable to take away.
If your talking the bolts that hold rads against the wall use a lump hammer and cold chisel BECAREFUL to break the bolt head.
