blends in nicely with the white boiler !!!!!!!! and you dont have to open filter again ,just remove magnet and flush via the drain valve.Shows you've caught sludge in 24 hours ,i wonder what it would catch in a months time ?

will see the one on mine tomorrow,been in a week
 
looks good do you get 2 copper elbows ? my only concern is the valves look similar to the dreaded magna clean ones
 
I saw a similar thing in the gas safe magazine I think it was a salus defender. However this one looks a lot more durable. Ill be looking forward to seeing that at my local merchants.

salus products are gay ad are for diyers or the recycle bin this product is in a different league
 
The Salus does not demonstrate catching non-magnetic particles and you have to disassemble to clean the filter . Once disassembled and put back , guess what happens to the o ring in the lid!

You have a sprinkler indoors. I had enough of a tf1 sprinkler. I mean ill be looking forward to see your product on the shelf of my local merchant.

Would you like me to forward your details on to my local merchant ?
 
Yes you are right about their 5 year warranty , I give a 2 year warranty on the Centramag and a 10 year warranty on the magnet .
Did you know any magnet submerged in water loses its magnetism over time .I wonder what would happen if the magnet stopped functioning after the 5 years .
I fail to see on the salus filter how it catches non-magnetic particles.
Roger i am like you a PLUMBER , if there was a problem in 5 or 6 years time ,i would still help you with the situation .
I am a bit like BAXI sorting the problem when the warranty has finished.
Salus has 5 year warranty though looking at there web page 😉

I know only teasing, if its anything like there other products you would need the warranty, and as you say has no non magnetic filtration element to it.

I now fit the spirotech magnabooster 3 since it has the magnet on the outside of the body. It's brass and I've not had any leakage issues with them so far.

Was in there last week. They had a big brass looking filter they where flogging. I have to phone them tomorrow so will ask.
