Hello,

I live in Sweden and find it interesting that it seems to be more common to clean heating systems with cleaners. Not many people in Sweden do that. I have never done and our system is about 50 years old. Everything now works after flushing the heat pump heat exchanger and installing the magnetite filter Adey Magnaclean.

I have now added an inhibitor and will do every year then there is no need for emptying in heating systems but emptying systems is not so simple. Maybe if at some point I would need to remove all water type when radiator replacement.
How often do you do?

Is there any risk that magnclean, phenox, sentinel or other well-known brand would damage the heating system or heat pump as you know?

A technician very helpful had told us that at some point he used a cleaners that actually did damage to the heating system which led to extensive repair.



What do you say?

There is another way to remove debris from heating systems.

Thack in advance

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks

Hello all, I'm would like to extend an existing outside tap to another point in the garden. I'm about to pour a concrete patio and was hoping to run the water line underneath. There are existing drain (and who knows what) pipes running along the same wall so I'm nervous about digging too far...
