I've just fitted a TF1 with my new boiler and I'm very happy with it, it's so easy to use. I'm also pretty sure it came with a load of different seals to use if mounted in any position other vertically.

Magna Clean all day long. I have always used these and now the twin tech is out this is even better. Thre was an article in the "Professional Plumber" magazine this month and they tested 3 different ones. the fernox tf1, the Magna Clean and the Spriotech. The Magna Clean came out on top with all tests. Stick with Magna Clean mate. You cant beat quality even if it is a bit more expensive than the rest

Too many problems with them for me. When they first came out we fitted them on every job and we had to go back and change lots of them.
Also the TF1 is much better for cleaning out. TF1 all day long.Also the TF1 can be used to flush the system instead of fitting a tee.
The spirotechs are a waste of time as well in my opinion.
BG has stopped fitting the magnaclean because they are not designed to work on sealed systems ???thats what we were told anyway.. Magnaclean only test them to 1 Bar...

I like the Spirotech Magnabooster2 then the TF1 then the new Twintech, the Magnaclean has to be isolated & the lid removed which over time wears the iso valves & the seals.
The TF1 also needs to be isolated but you can dump the crap out of the bottom, the Twintech needs to be isolated & dump out of the bottom but the Spirotech doesn't need isolating & dumps out the bottom & comes with a 20 year guarantee & is made from brass, so no continuity issues.

yeah but the tests they do is how much crap they collect... they don't leave them is someones house for 2 years & clean it out regularly... I have one in my house, it's no more than 6 months old & the isolating valves are starting to stick already, I've had it open about 6 times!! I've got a Spirotech to put in when I get a round to it.

in my opinion the spirotechs are just for show as they hardly collect anything.Also the magnates must be rubbish if you can just wash them off.
Try washing a magnaclean without taking the sleeve off and you will see what i mean.
