Why do home owners etc always choose magnaclean ?
Probably because they advertise most.. they are by no means the best filters but are the most popular. The magnets are poor in comparison and I am not impressed with the strainer design which collects or not the none magnetic debris.
I have had a significant contribution to several magnetic filters on sale in uk and European sales arena. But cannotbmention them cause it’s against ukpf rules ..so which other filters would experienced installers on here choose

Shaun all my business to do with mag filters was concluded by 2010 and I have no money
Tied up,in any of the ones I designed and no royalty deals ,
So,I am well able to comment without predudice . In my opinion there are too many on the market and the specification enabling buyers to compare the available ones is flawed. I do not like the magnaclean because it is a cheap poor powered magnet unit mass produced . mr Adey
A plumber just like us designed it and then it got ramped by the likes of bg etc . He made good money and well done and got out .. Rob Foster aka centralheatking

On a Magnaclean? What for?

So the filter can be drained and cleaned out and handy for adding inhibitor . Kop

Ah thanks. Didn't realise that this model had a drain port at the bottom. I wonder where Magnaclean got that idea from?
