Hi all,
First post here so go easy on me.
I've got British Gas homecare and just had them out for a boiler problem as it kept overheating, he diagnosed a blockage in the gravity flow pipes so all the heat was kept down at the boiler end. To cut a long story short he advised a powerflush (for...
Hi all,
Old open vented 3 position diverter system.
I needed a drain down, clean out etc about 6 months ago whilst some other work was done and the system was filled with 4L of Fernox MB-1.
Once the air was removed from the system ( which being a bungalow has never been easy ) it performs quite...
What magnetic filters do you guy fit to your heating system?. I went to one today that was fitted on the return to a Vaillant 428, the boiler was in limp mode. After cleaning the filter which had about a tablespoon of crud in it, it worked fine. I would of thought that the compact filter could...
Hi guys, so quick question regarding an ideal combi...
The boiler has been loosing pressure and gradually been getting worse. So last week i decided to replace the worst rad in the house and pop a can of fernox in the system whilst I was at it. Picked up a replacement PRV yesterday as I was...
hi, i have a tf1 on my system, i added inhibitor last week through it to my system, it now seems to be leaking but not from any usual place. i.e where a seal is, it is coming from just above the drain valve where the conical piece joins the plastic bit where the valve is screwed into, is it...
Hi there,
I normally use Sentinel x100 for replenishing central heating inhibitor, a bit pricey however I have seen a product called sure graft at plumbase, just wondering what people think to it.
Looking at the state of some of the central heating contents I have drained down recently...
Evening lads, what's people's views on a adey magna cleanse? I use a fernox power flow and I rate the unit. Keep debating about getting a magnet filter to speed the process up.
i keep looking at the adey magna cleanse and I like the look of it but my issue is a power flush pumps a high velocity...

Saw on eBay Tds meters are going cheap on eBay, purchased one to look clever on jobs & out of interest as I like to see how clean my systems are eg after power flushing!

I,ve got 25 bottles of f3 if anyone want them and about 10 clamp on fittings for condense pipe don't want any money for them I just need to get rid of them
Just put some leak sealer in a system and I'm pretty sure it was just watered down PVA. Maybe it was because it was cheap off the bay? Didn't really fancy spending brand prices if they're all the same. If they're not then what works best?
Hello chaps
Two years and 20 call outs (insured)
The radiators were power flushed two years ago and an inhibitor left in the system

Filter also fitted two years ago.
System loses pressure but mostly just stops

Hi, Been to a system to day UFH downstairs which looks like bacteria maybe starting to grow looking at the clear flow indicators, If I just pour AF10 in the system will that kill the bacteria? Or is it just to prevent it growing?
Thanks
