Why a "Gold Filter" instead of a TF1 ?

obviously fernox and potterton have done a deal to sell the product as a pack. The person you have bought them from have obviously removed the tf1 from the pack and sell the boiler seperately to increase profit. Maybe you should stop buying stuff on ebay tony
Its exactly the same thing in a similar pack.
Its not an Ebay but from Elitefix Ltd in Keithley. Quite professional and reasonable prices.
The invoice calls it a TF1 and the 28 mm version was marked TF1 too.
They have set up their www.goldfilter.co.uk and their own 0870 number.
I hate 0870 numbers!

There was I expecting that you would know exactly what it is and why!
Its clearly well set up with their own web site and telephone number.
The only problem I have is that the customer was expecting to find it marked TF1

I've stopped fitting any of them
The platelike stuff which clogs heat exchangers isn't stopped by a filter or a magnet. It's in solution until it precipitates out.
Unless you're going to use the filter as a thing to be regularly emptied of everything else, in which case it needs a flush, which should clear the boiler of flakes too...

My experience indicates that when there is inhibitor dissolved black stuff forms on cold surfaces of the plate heat exchanger, causing eventual blockage...
I omit the inhibitor with no downside... and I prefer the bronze spirotrap to this plastic thingy...far easier to install, robust in construction and with a quality drain off valve included free...
Well spotted!
Your prize is a week helping out behind the counter at your local Dumb Centre.
I am lucky to have been on threee customer service courses!
It would be quite shocking seeing how customers would react to a polite, friendly and helpful attitude at a PC branch.
At one branch the staff all went to the back when they finished serving a customer, totally ignored me, and were playing football in the warehouse at the back!
Sorry, I must decline the prize. Give it to someone who is more deserving!

They are exactly the same. Gold products are licensed by potterton for independent merchants.
The Spirotech filter works in a different way, and does not need a magnet. They only added one to the previous design to reassure people who don't understand how it works.
Well OK, but why is that necessary when any dealer can buy the original Fernox product?
The one that supplied my order sent a Gold 22 mm and a Fernox 28 mm !
