Fitting Spirotech MagnaBooster MB3 DIY

[potterton678]

This is the design - perhaps you would be good enough to point out any faults or your constructive thoughts.

I have some compression fit elbows (22mm) and they will be fitted at the corners marked 1,2, 6,7 & 4
The return pipe would be cut at 1 & 4, hopefully i can get a pipe slice in there.
The Magnabooster will go in the bit marked in green (obviously it is not to scale).

Corner 3 - will be a 22mm T compression joint - reducing to 15mm on the vertical bit (ie the Blue bit).
- The Yellow bit will be a 15mm isolation valve ( http://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Chrome-Plated-Isolating-Valve-15mm/p/420187), I guess this can be any isolation valve and that there isn't any thing special about it.

The Black bit at 5 is an Automatic Air release Valve (like this Bottle Air Vent - http://www.screwfix.com/p/bottle-ai...g&gclid=CK2P19HhssgCFQq3GwodU24KuA&kpid=34359)

As i mentioned it is extremely tight in there.

Thanks

It's not how I'd do it but if you have to use compression, make sure you clip it well or it will be very sensitive to being knocked.

Solder would be better.

Why not go straight up to the tee??
