magnatec location

[navi-gator]

Hi All,
I am going to have a 22mm Magna clean C/H filter piped into my home system [15yrs old]
I have had a couple of quotes and have been told different locations for the magnaclean filter.
please see pics and note A, B, C or D labels.
Your opinion on correct location would be appreciated!
Thanks
PS managed to upload pics.......

On return pipe as close to boiler as possible. Can't see pic but don't need to.

:iagree: Nuff said!

 

[navi-gator]

return pipe? to pump, boiler or cylinder?

 

[Rickster123]

Are you having the system flushed first? Otherwise it will be like polishing a turd in my opinion.

Return pipe to boiler

Do they still have that problem with the new design?
We used to fit them along with scalemasters, if it wasn't one it was the other!

so magnacleans can be used as sieves (dual purpose)

Why are you having a filter fitted on an old system with old boiler?

It won't do anything.

save money and fit 1 when you need to change the boiler

Agreed. Pointless. Damage is done by this point

Villa Toms right, its best to save your money until you fit a new boiler.

Are you a BG shareholder? 🙂

That's the best thing about ideal mexicos. When you remove them you gain an extra room in your house.

And the house actually rises from the ground as the weight is removed!!

Was asked to fit one for someone a while ago! I refused as I said it was a waste of my time if they weren't going to have the system flushed beforehand! A friend had recommended they get it done as they'd had it installed & it was the best thing ever! I explained several times the reasons why I wouldn't do it but they still insisted they wanted it. I said I'd go away & order it & get back to them! 2 years later they're probably still waiting for a call!

spend the money on a powerflush imo.
