Hi Guys. I live in a row home. I removed a radiator from under my dining room window so that the contractor can cut the windows into a door for a new deck that was built. A friend of mine came out and basically drained the water, then removed the radiator. I not have 2 little pipes coming out of the dining room floor that I do not know what to do with.

Can I just go down to the basement where they run to, cut and cap, or do I have to connect the 2 pipes back together somehow?

It is difficult to tell weather it is coming off of a tee or not. I live in an older row home with a finished basement ceiling that you can not see over. I am assuming the safest thing would be to just connect them? If so, what do I need to do to cut them and connect? The pipes run very tight to the ceiling so I don't think a pipe cutter would work. After I cut them, what exactly do I have to buy or do to connect?

Thanks

I don't plan on replacing/relocating it unless I notice a significant difference in the winter.

Anybody?

I was thinking of cutting the pipe in the basement with a hacksaw or somehting and trying to get some kind of compression fitting to cap the ends. I still don't know if it will cut the flow to the other pipes though.

I can't finish my floor with these 2 pipes sticking out of tghe floor.

Can I cut underneath the floor in the basement with a hacksaw or reciprocating saw and use some type of compression fittings?
