recently removed a radiator and am waiting to fit new one,( pipe work blanked off as required). The reason the radiator was removed was due to a leak caused by internal corrosion. I've drained the system several times in the last few weeks but have never added any corrosion prevention agents. Can anyone recommend any and suggest the best method of adding bearing in mind i have a break in the system where my radiator will go. Tips on the exact process for adding would be much appreciated

The porch was poured the same time as the interior concrete two years ago and has no cracks but does not have a vapor barrier as the inside does. The porch has the same footing as the rest of the house. I was going to use concrete adhesive between the old and new concrete but if I have to add a visqueen barrier, it seems like the adhesive won't do anything.
