sorted byUnscrew the TRV using the knurled nut under the cap and check the pin isn't stuck (don't worry about unscrewing this, water won't spurt out lol)
Pin should be all the way up when you take off the TRV, see if you can push it down (edited)
Why would you run a new pipe anyway? What benefit is there? 15mm copper is 15mm copper. Where would you run a new pipe to? The boiler?
Agree with the lack of clips though.
Also the bends on the valve entry could've been neater, better still one elbow and 45° bend would've kept pipe nicely tucked in behind valve and against wall
System might need balancing.
Especially with the cold spell and everyone trying to get more heat in each room by opening valves to max on both ends.
Try turning a few rads that are working off too see if that gets this one warm.
If it does start getting warm then balance the system.
