After finding a blockage in the flow fill pipe from F&E tank I am debating using a chemical cleaner.
This is a 1960's conventional boiler, F&E tank in loft, all pretty std stuff.
Would I be opening up a can of worms by adding a cleaner to the system? Released sludge causing blockages elsewhere?
With the blockage removed the CH system is operating OK so is it worth bothering?
I will be adding some inhibitor though as the boiler sounds like it is kettling, possibly only since I have drained & refilled, but this may be that I never noticed before.
Are they all much of a muchness? I notice Screwfix sell 'no nonsense' ones for about half the price of Fernox, Sentinel, etc.... but are they only half as good?
