Freebiie alert! Calshot inhibitor and cleanser

View the thread, titled "Freebiie alert! Calshot inhibitor and cleanser" which is posted in UK Plumbers Forums on UK Plumbers Forums.

don't want to shoot the gift horse but my old company (began with E and ended in AGA) had a look at Calmag inhibitor but we couldn't use it because health and safety wise it was classified as harmful. From the looks of the MSDS sheet on this one this contains flipping formaldehyde, which is not only massivley toxic but its a cancer causer. Haway Calmag there must be something else you can put in it to make it a bit safer so we feel better for using it.

are other brands any better? calmag produce heating chemicals for some other brands as well

Personally I've lost a lot of family to the big C over the years, and perhaps I'm biased in that respect. Personally I stick to Fernox, some Sentinel and a bit of Kamco depending on the job. I would add that at my age I'm not bashing systems in every day and I rarely win work based on price so although I understand the need for cheaper options I tend to walk away from jobs like that.
