Ahh just wondered because it's easier to mix up the pipe work in plastic than copper

Good idea, might try kamco as well they have always been helpful too. Found it interesting as it's not been something I've really thought about before. With artificial soft water you can get around it with naturally soft water unless you pop down the cash and carry and buy bottled water (joke)...

Would love to know the outcome. As a side question was the system plumbed in plastic?

Thank you for your reply, I guess the basis of my original post was in areas where the water is naturally soft what can you do?

The context is repairing a sludged, corroded system ie replacing pinholed radiators and boiler and being aware of the softness of the water plus no visible reasons for such heavy corrosion

Not loaded, most of my experience is in very hard water areas, I'm unsure of the consequences of filling a heating system (copper and steel) in an area of soft or very soft water. Wether it is a problem and if it is are there any treatments for it! Thanks for your reply

Maybe there has been a mix up with the pipe work and radiators are connected flow to flow and return to return?

Does anybody here have any experience with areas of the Country with soft water, filling heating systems with soft water, and any chemical treatment?
