We live in an age of high efficiency boilers, but for many years, little attention has been
given to the cleanliness of central heating systems. The majority of systems suffer from
black iron oxide contamination. This creates thick sludge deposits which are the result of
corrosion taking place within radiators and other metallic components.
The oxide particles range from very large to sub-micron in size with the latter leaching
into the system water continuously during use. These particles bond to all components
often causing premature failure of pumps and valves. When they contaminate the boiler
heat exchanger and pipe work, it results in a dramatic loss of efficiency.
It is widely recognised that even a minimal build-up results in a serious drop in boiler
efficiency. MagnaClean Professional has been carefully designed to remove these particles
from suspension while at the same time allowing a 100% flow rate through the system.
Installation is simple with each isolation valve rotating through 360° and therefore
supporting any number of location options. These valves have been specifically designed
for use with MagnaClean Professional and have high quality PTFE and EPDM seals.
An added advantage for installers is the Pro-Fill air vent built in to the lid. This special
vent incorporates a unique, one-way valve, allowing the installer to inject corrosion
inhibitor chemicals directly into the MagnaClean Professional canister without the need
to isolate any part of the system. Just remove the air vent screw, inject the chemical
and replace the air vent screw. It’s that simple.
MagnaClean Professional provides years of protection maintaining
the high efficiency of central heating systems. It also results in financial
benefit and increased reliability.
The product is backed by a two year limited guarantee.
Developed by independent heating specialists ADEY Professional Heating
Solutions,
MagnaClean Professional
has been specifically designed for
the efficient maintenance of central heating systems.
Q. Where can I fit MagnaClean
®
Professional?
A. MagnaClean Professional is suitable for all central heating systems and can be fitted anywhere
on the main heating circuit. In order to achieve the best protection for the boiler, it is
recommended that MagnaClean Professional is fitted between the last radiator and the boiler
(see diagram overleaf). In determining a suitable location for installation, it is important to
ensure you allow adequate access for servicing.
Q. Which connection on the MagnaClean Professional canister is the flow and which is the return?
A. The inlet and outlet on MagnaClean Professional are reversible and there is no flow restriction.
Q. Can I fit MagnaClean Professional horizontally?
A. MagnaClean Professional can be fitted in any orientation. Each isolation valve can rotate
through 360° making it possible to install in a vertical position on horizontal pipework.
Q. How often do I service MagnaClean Professional?
A. MagnaClean Professional has been designed to retain, on average, a year’s build-up of sludge.
Therefore, servicing is required once a year with the annual boiler service. If the system has a
heavy sludge build-up, or a power-flush was not carried out, we recommend cleaning the filter
at appropriate intervals during the first year of installation and annually thereafter. It is easy to
check the filter periodically, following the instructions overleaf.
Q. Can I use chemicals with MagnaClean Professional?
A. Yes. You can use any chemical or acid agents on the market with MagnaClean Professional. The
patented Pro-Fill air vent has been designed to allow installers to insert chemicals directly into
the system as described overleaf. Chemical dosing kits for this purpose are available to purchase
through your local plumbing merchant. Alternatively, remove the lid and use the canister as a
dosing vessel.
Q. What is the lifespan of MagnaClean Professional?
A. MagnaClean Professional has been designed to last for the lifetime of the boiler, normally ten
years. It provides continuous protection and comes with a two year warranty. Registering your
warranty is straightforward and can be done online at www.adeysolutions.co.uk
Q. How do I isolate the valves?
A. Simply turn the valves to the marked OFF position using the spanner provided.
The valves rotate 360° in either direction. Important: Remember to switch off the
electrical supply to the boiler when servicing MagnaClean Professional.
Q. What can I install on 28mm pipework?
A. We recommend installing MagnaClean Professional 28mm which has been
designed for this purpose. MagnaClean Professional 28mm can also be
installed onto 22mm pipework where greater sludge capacity is required.
Q. I have a pacemaker, will MagnaClean Professional affect me?
A. As with all magnetic products, if you have a pacemaker caution should
be taken when handling MagnaClean Professional at all times. When
MagnaClean Professional is installed, the magnetic field outside the canister
is approximately one tenth of an average fridge magnet.
Q. What other size MagnaClean products do you provide?
A. When a MagnaClean product is required for larger pipework, up to 35mm,
two MagnaClean Professional 28mm units can be fitted in parallel with no
flow restriction. For pipework larger than 35mm we would recommend using
MagnaClean Industrial from our commercial range. For more information call our
