Message-ID: <15E7C3AE-E788-47B8-A3AA-9E2218354DCD@thehobsons.co.uk> What's the current state of play for the Radbot actuator heads ? My mum's just moved, and the new (to her) bungalow has no controls other than the time clock and regular TRVs. I'd like to try some Radbots and see how she gets on with them - but I've noticed the shop is out of stock of TRV heads (and seems to have been for some time). BTW - are there adapter for valves where the head has a slotted skirt that clips over a ridge on the valve body and is secured with a ring clamp ? Doesn't matter if not, two of the valves were stuck just the other day so I was thinking of replacing them all.

We will likely have a small number that we can make available to friends and family regardless of our primary sales channels, though the details of that are not yet resolved.
