magnaclean fitting advice

[Homesafe]

The dirt separation part of the spirovent will not perform well if there are any additives in the water which reduce surface tension.

you mean no inhibitor should be used with a spirovent

don't bother with a magnaclean fit a spirovent magnabooster on the boiler return, much better product.

Where can you get the Spirovent Magnabooster from?

When I Google it I get no results and it says: "did you mean spirovent magma booster"

The only thing I can think of is the Spirovent dirt and air.

I have an original Spirovent, and looking at the Magnetic version I think it is just a gimmick, since the magnet will only catch particles that have already fallen through the labyrinth and gone into the collection bowl.

I fitted a Magnaclean in my old mum's house and am very happy with it. There is very little non-magnetic material that I could see when flushing it and the water is clean and clear (I gave it X400 then X100 afterwards and the magnet still picks up a thin smear of black after 2 years, but I cleaned out the F&E again today which had got dirty again, and will see what effect that has)

I notice the spirovent memorybooster is available only in the UK. Perhaps this because the advertising claims police are less diligent here.

Why not just take the simple solution and just use a magnavent ?

What about the opinion on the Fernox Boiler Buddy? Has anyone used these and are they any good at all?

Fitted alot of boiler buddys , neater install supposed to be based on formula 1 oil filtration technology , or so they say , they work but I do not beleive they work as well as the magnaclean e.g the one with the gauze , fitted loads of them , now using the fernox TFI magnetic filters done about 10 , hydrocholonic ,( I think thats the word ) action , probably means swirling action , like the spirovent they can be flushed with out dismantling !!!

never fit a boiler buddy,they have pump valves as isolation valves and there not designed to be turned off frequently,they can also pass which would be a nightmare

I really like the boiler buddy but it is let down by the fact it has to be removed to clean. There is a good chance that the plastic connections are not upto the job.
