Hi all.
I have an open vented system with magnaclean filter installed at the return pipe close to boiler.

I understand how the magnacleanse cleaning process works for my system but am wondering about flushing it out afterwards.

Adey recommend connecting mains pressure with a pressure gauge at the expansion tank which seems quite invasive to me.

Providing my tank is clean is there any reason why I can't just use gravity pressure to flush each radiator?

If gravity pressure not enough could I use the pump on low speed maybe?

I realise this will be a slower process but would this work just to get rid of chemicals etc after the cleaning process?

Any pointers hugely appreciated

Thank you🙂
