This is good.  I've done this several times in my home and it's a rather
simple procedure.
In a few places the valve was broken, so I just took a wrench and  unscrewed
the valve body until it opened up.
If this is a water system the pressure is not great.  It won't spray all
over.
Blessings,
Tom

  Hi Mark,

  Not knowing what others are telling you about how the valves work it is
difficult to say what is correct.

  The valve should be high on the radiators. This is where air pockets will
rise to. With the system running you open the valve and allow the air to his
out until you get water. Collect a cup or two of the water just to be sure
there aren't a few burps of air left in the rad.

  This can be done to all rads but in particular go for the highest ones in
the building first this may be enough.
