good advice guys except it's wrong, fernox Superconcentrate comes in a tube simiar in size to sealant it comes with adaptors to screw in2 a bleed nipple on a rad, turn off both valves, take out the bleed nipple on the rad (make sure u have some towels underneath cause u will have water there) connect up the tube open one end only of the rad & pump it in turn the rad valve off & disconnect the tube (some of it will leak out) put the nipple back in & open both valves run the heating, trying to put it in2 the boiler will do no good at all cause as soon as u turn on the heating it will go straight round the rads it won't stay in the boiler, if u are talking about the new pressurised f series then this needs to connect to the filling loop with may be part of the boiler so these won't connect get the Superconcentrate in the mastic type tube u will need a sealant gun

that's o k if you have the large newish air vents 1/2" big how's you going to get it in if the bleed only1/8" big or mounted between twin panels

You need to put in to radiator by removing air vent key and funnel in through it. make sure you need to drain that radiator enough to accomedate amount you put in.
