Dirt in system causing valve not to seal? Just shove speed fit cap on.

Power flushed and filter should catch dirt as this was return to boiler!! and o ring leaking!! I wont be fitting anymore!!

out of interest why did you remove the filter to change the lid seal? i find centramags much better

Not had issue with o rings other than when over tightened. Fitted a few hundred I guess. Cross threadded about 10 or 20 mag one!

you cant over tighten tf1's
so why magnaclean? same o rings on lid!!

I've noticed all the Magnacleans haven't the best lid seals even when brand new. The seals are real small and could be done with being slightly wider.

Tf1 doesn't collect and muck either so no need to clean it out.

Tried centra mag. Not really fond. Just adey brainwashed now

Im guessing the installer, but I could be wrong.

not enough space, need space below and above, below for draining and above for magnet to come out!! There is no issue with it being too close on the return as it has a drain and comes off easy, think we are missing the point here!! Have magnaclean addressed the issues of the first magnaclean or just bought out a new one that looks better!! most of us hate push fit and wont put it within 1 metre of the boiler, yet magnaclean bring out a push fit magnetic filter and we are happy to fit!! Most boilers don't have 1 metre of pipework showing!!
