just read on website "....These valves have been specially designed for use with Magnaclean and have high quality P.T.F.E seals. "
So, sorted then

Quick Question - probably for Hinton Heating ... When you install the Magnaclean Professinal, would you advise a wrap or two of GAS PTFE tape on the filters threads where the 22mm connection valves fit? Cheers, Hoovie. |

Shouldn't be necessary on the compression fittings as they are brand new, just cut the pipe and fit your compression joints, isolators etc. You could even look at the website. http://www.adeysolutions.co.uk/subprofe ... asp?id=248 Good luck, looks a good piece of kit, wonder how much restriction it causes, probably alot if blocked I know, I mean when clean. |

On the pipe side, non - agreed, but I was thinking more on the magnaclean side as it is made of some sort of carbon-plastic type material. It supposedly creates no significant resistance in the system and is "50 times less resistive then a traditional/typical (can't remember which) Y-system filter". It is actually a fairly big canister and I reckon the magnet strenth may be designed to only be able to attract a ceertain maximum amount of sludge so it doesn't block up - I would hope so anyway :grin: Thought it worth while as the boiler is brand new and want to preserve it as much as possible! |
