Jan shows how to remove radiator covers to clean the dust out. 

Thank you so much for this, I just moved into a new flat and the radiators look like they’ve never been cleaned, absolutely disgusting but beautifully clean now!

I am South African. And we don’t have these in our homes. Moved to UK so all of this is sooo new to me. And I can say I have now successfully cleaned my radiator thanks to this video!

I had given up, now I’m amazed how simple it is, thank you very much

Hi! I’ve been wanting to deep clean my rads for ages now but was too scared to try dismantling them 😅 This is the first vid I found and it’s answered all my questions! Thanks for such a simple easy to follow video!

Great to see everyone having a go at dismantling stuff. Well done. Real dust traps these are. Great 😊 👍

Brilliant!! Been trying to fathom out how to remove my radiator covers for a couple of years for a long overdue clean. Thank you!

Just looked at mine and its filthy, didnt think you could get them off..watched this and have a clean radiator now..thank u 👍

Fabulous. I have lived with these radiators for years. So fantastic I can finally get to clean them.

Thanks so much I’m only 15 and I accidentally broke my radiator and my mum probably would have killed and this showed me how to fix it honestly can’t thank u enough

this is a lifesaver thank you!! i just moved in to my new studio in a student house and the girl before me didnt clean anything! there were literally hanging amost black spiderwebs from underneath the radiator, so gross. i cant imaginge what im about to find when i try to clean the inside

Why have I not seen this before!!!! Another job to add to my to do list. Thanks so much x

This was educational and wholesome, the excitement you had brought joy to me 😄 keep it up and thank you.

One of my radiators had a screw and that made it easy to take off. My other rads didn't and I couldn't get them off and figured maybe they weren't meant to come off. Thanks to this video as gave me confidence that a bit more effort would make it slide. It was very very stiff as they have been on for over 10 years but finally it popped off..finally I can clean the dust and oh my was there a lot :-( but it's gone now yay so satisfying!!! Thank you for the video

Thank you so much..such a huge help for a foreigner in 🇩🇪 from 🇮🇳...cleaning radiators for the first time🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️

Holy moly! Who knew you could do this! How cool is that! I’ve been ramming tooth brushes in between the gaps and trying all sorts! This is brilliant thank you!

Moved into my house over 2 years ago and that was the first thing I wanted to do but now I know how, I cannot waittttt THANK YOUUUU

Thank you!!! I’ve been trying to figure out how to do this for ages, but just couldn’t work it out on my own!

Thank you for this! I moved into my flat not long ago and it looks like the radiators have never been cleaned 🤦🏼‍♀️ we don’t have radiators like this where I’m from so I’m finally going to clean them now that I know how to take it apart

I have a day off from work tomorrow and I will clean all my radiators up! Thanks a lot for the tip.

oh my god, this is brilliant. i was trying to use the radiator cleaning brush but couldn't get it through this grill. now i'll be able to. will do them all later on today or tomorrow. fantastic!

Oh my days. You have literally just changed my life!! lol. Have been in my home over 2 years and could not work out how to do it. Covers are off! Thank you!

Thanks I’ve just did not know how to remove either... so I can now clean my rads too 😀

Thanks Jan!!! Will be having a crack at this tomorrow with 2 nasty radiators in my new flat.

Watched this and went and did one of my radiators, easy peasy, just got another seven to do now, thanks for the tip.

Brilliant thanks! I knew that’s how they came off but mine are quite stiff and I didn’t want to force anything. Wasn’t sure if there was a screw somewhere. Can you believe I fitted this radiator only six years ago! 👍🏽

Thank u so much,i was looking for this video.after building work our rediators have gone so dirty.

Yay thanks jan I’m amazed at how simple that looked! Fingers crossed as I’m about to tackle ours :)

Like most things it's easy when you know how and now thanks to you I know how, great job.

Tx for helping me solve this. My rads had a type of stopper at each end, which prevented me lifting high enough. V.happy it's sorted now. The grot was horrible & I can now paint neatly around, giving a much better finish.

Many thanks, I’ve been pulling, tugging and then finally scratching my head. Ah I know look at you tube. Job Done.

thanks I literally have no idea what I am doing in life I'm gonna try this tomorrow !! I hope it's made the same

Awww this was really helpful oh my lord you guys dont want to see mine if you think that was dusty ( mind you I've not too long move in a flat)

I was looking for something to remove the dust, I mean you would need a stick with a cover cotton to get into the tubes to clean up properly, but thanks for give me a good idea! ✔✔👍👍

Thankyou very much! The dust in these was driving me crazy!

Thanks for another helpful video. I didn't realise I could remove them so easily. I have learnt many things from you. Just cleaned tiles this week with your technique and am now a dab hand with compression fittings again thanks to your helpful videos. Keep up the good work and many thanks. You seem a lovely couple.

Thanks. I bought my house in July, and a lot of the radiators are absolutely filthy That seriously reduces efficiency, and it looks like they've never been cleaned inside at all.

Loved your enthusiasm! cant wait to have a go at my radiators now. thanks for the video x

Thanks for showing how to remove the panels Now I will be able to clean the radiators 😁😁.

fantastic... I ended up making a vacuum attachment from straws and tape to get in the openings... this is so much easier

SO simple! But you have to know it. Thank you very much!

Seems easy enough. Like your feather duster!!

I love all the helpful videos you make. I'm learning a lot and they are very useful to novice DIYer's. Thanks very much.

Thank you! :-) now I can clean my radiator.

You two are supper stars, now i know how to clean my rads thank you so much.

Needed to paint my radiator but didn't know how to remove the grill. Job done thank you. 🙄

Really appreciate this vid ive been trying for a year to get the covering off mine 😂🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Great job Jan and husband, thank you so much

Done it many times as a maintenance assistant in a NHS hospital .

be careful to hold the rad down with your wrist while you pull the cover with your hand (top bit). Because the rads are not fastend into their brackets, they just rest on them, and they are usually not expected to be lifted up (they rely on the clamped rad pipes held in to hold them - but on upper floors tha rad pipes can just be loose under the floor.

Thanks Jan! I was going to call out a plumber to do mine ❤

Thank you very much for this video!! Kisses from Romania.

You have a gentle touch Jan x

Video still helping out. Thank you 😊

Love this. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I've been trying to figure this out for years!!

Thank you I will definitely try this way as our radiators need a clean

OMG, thank u sooo much! I always wandered how to clean the inside of my radiators and now I know. Thank u soo much I'm going to clean mine now!

Thanks for that. I was having to bend them to get them off. Will do this from now on.

Top tips by this handsome young man 😁👌 thanks for this …

My radiator is different from them and doesn't come off like that ?

Keep using your video for taking off radiators for decorating, very useful and huge thanks ... however some of my radiators are different. The side panels are enclosed around the pipe so do not lift off how Jan is showing us and the top panel is on top of the side panel ... have I seen another one of your instructions with a different radiator? Thanks

Easy when you know how! Thanks for sharing this great tip, mine are filthy! now for the spring clean :)

I have not oong moved into a property and when heatings on tge house stinks. I wondered why and just thought workers had left debri behind radiators. Well it was worse than I thought. They were dirty beyond belief with thick thick dust and cobwebs behind, inside etc. Looks like it hasnt been cleaned for 15 years or more. Cant cope so came looking for this video xo

Well done Jan

Thank you for this. I have the same radiators but lately I’ve noticed some clothes moths flying from out of my radiators late at night. There is a lot of dust behind there and I don’t have carpet downstairs, just laminate flooring and carpet upstairs. I don’t want to use brushes incase there is a moth infestation behind there and I start disturbing them when they start moving about. Well, that’s what my mind is telling me. Lol. Overthinking it and not looking forward to it. But I’m thinking about getting the Henry Flexi Crevice Tool for my Henry Hoover to hoover up behind there after I remove the side/s and top metal plates to gain access. Also, I have Rentokil Insectrol Moth spray and Rentokil Clothes Moth Killer Spray incase I need it and some spare hoover bags. After I’ve hoovered behind all my radiators downstairs I will place underneath each radiator some moth traps to monitor moth activity but I’m hoping after I’ve done this the numbers decrease. To be fair I’ve never really hoovered behind my rads before because it’s not the easiest of places to hoover but seems it’s an ideal spot for Insects. Thanks.

Thanks, I'm trying to do this on rusty radiators and it is difficult but I'm getting there lol

Thanks for sharing the information

Amazing thank you for this video, had no idea it was so easy 👍

Thank you very much for valuable tips on how to remove the cover from the radiator. Best regards from Northamptonshire :)

That's DIY instruction as it should be seen. Ever thought of applying to be part of a team of award winning experts on daytime TV with your instructional vids?

Really helpful advice thank you

al & jan wished you put that on 3 weeks ago i forced top grill off to do same buggered it up ah well you live and learn

Jan you're a star

Thank you so much. You’ve yet again helped me

keep up the good work love these videos

Great tip. My radiators have the top panel covering the sides. Any idea how to manage that one?

When cleaning, it is a good idea to use a powerful vacuum cleaner to avoid inhaling the dust rising in the air. Regards

Thanks for the tip. I didn't realise it was so easy. My radiators are so dusty :-( Oh well, I guess I've got no excuse now. More housework for today then, yay. When I can be bothered, that is!

You changed my life! Thank you so much😁

Put the vacuum cleaner hose under the radiator when you clean it also you can get a brush for the fins

Thanks for the video.

Thank you ! So helpful.

I've kept my covers off..Find I get more heat from the rad

Very helpful, thank you 👍

Great video Jan - thanks! :)

Fantastic. Just what I was looking for. Worked a treat!!

Hi great videos, but we have similar covers with the wire clip at the bottom, I got them off OK but getting them on is really tricky. The clips are supposed to go under the bottom and point downwards, to get them in this position I'm finding really difficult and now there hanging off. I've given up. Please help.

Thanks 🙏

Thank You! I will do it tomorrow ❤️

My radiators are slightly different, the top section goes right to the edges and there is a small cover surrounding the nut at the top end of the side. Any chance you can show how to do these please?

That has been a revelation! Thank you!

Thank you, so simple! But how to clean the dust and cobwebs collected around the grills? that run from the top to base of the radiator?

Brilliant. Thank you

never knew how to do this so thank a lot i will have a go now

Ooooh. That's exciting. Going to try and do mine now. Thank you.

Great video, thank you!! You solved my dirty problem :) it was so easy..

Thankyou so much very helpful!

How do you remove/replace air vents that have metal clips attached at the bottom of air vent. My radiators air vents have different fittings to yours?

I'm just moving totay this will be perfect

Great video, I will vacuums my dust out!!

Thanks so much for this, just subscribed as hoping to do a bit more DIY around the house. I've managed to shift the side panels on mine but can't get them off - the hole at the top on the side panels won't come over the bits protruding in the radiator, like they're not big enough. is there anything more I can do?
