 TRV's range from £10 (Cheap) to £20 (Drayton). 7x £20 = £140
 New Single Rad with TRV. £50 (Screwfix Roughly)
 4 mtrs Copper (£7 per mtr). £28
 Inhibitor - £20

 Total - £288 PARTS.
 You will make it cheaper if you can supply the TRV, and the Rad. Screwfix are having a right old heating sale on now. You might even pick up that Towel Rail..0
