[corgiman]

I wholeheartedly recommend the kamco one

http://www.kamco.co.uk/

good piece of kit

 

[JPC]

have u got one or used one ?

i suppose a pump head adaptor would be hand ?

 

[corgiman]

Yes we have two

one has lasted for seven years, with just a bit of servicing, and the new one has been on the road for about two months, they both work pretty much five days a week week in week out.

I am sure kamco do that adaptor thingy

You get all the kit, pump, chemicals hoses etc for about 700 plus VAT

hmmm...i was inclining towards kamco ...so i probably will go with it.

thx.

 

[corgiman]

you are welcome

we like them and as I said the get used alot and they have not lets us down.

I have used the fernox powerflusher and you can subject it to higher temperatures than the kamco (80 degs I think) which can be handy but I really like the engineering of the kamco one (dumps on both sides etc)

I have a Kamco one. They don't nit-pick over whose chemicals you use for guarantee purposes. They do a pump adaptor and a kit for several different pump makes. Very useful. And a ruddy great Magnaclean unit. This removes almost all the magnatite and rust before the water is recirculated.

Whatever you get, make sure the connecting hoses are big enough to handle the pump output and the pump is powerful enough to create enough flow inside a rad to shift the crud! Sounds obvious, but there are some machines around with half-inch hoses and feeble pumps for which the phrase including 'skin off a rice pudding' comes to mind. I've got one such and it's disappointing!

I've got a Kamco and a Magnaclean powerflush filter, both excellent pieces of kit.

I'd steer away from the fernox one, I occasionally use one at the company I work for and it is less user friendly than the Kamco.

kamco it is then....thx guys
