Remove the old radiator, leaving the two valves attached to the pipes. Grip the valve assembly with one wrench so that it cannot be pulled loose from the pipe feeding it. If you open the bleed valve at the top of the radiator, air will enter and allow the water to flow more quickly out of the radiator. Undo the nut completely. Now, carefully undo the nut holding the radiator to the valve at the other end in the same way. Close the bleed valve. Lift the radiator up from its brackets and hold it at an angle over the bucket to finish draining. Radiators can be fairly heavy, so get some help.
