System protection

Magnetic system filter installation across Somerset

Every modern manufacturer wants a magnetic filter on the return pipe. Skip it and you can be arguing about warranty when the heat exchanger silts up. It's an hour's work and it pays for itself over one boiler service.

Which filter, which brand

MagnaClean Professional 2XP is the industry default. Fernox TF1 Omega is smaller and better on tight installations. Both are excellent — the install is what matters, not the brand.

Included with the filter fit

  • Drain-down of the boiler circuit
  • Filter sited on the return, near the boiler
  • System inhibitor dosed to correct concentration
  • Photo of filter position for warranty records
  • First check-and-empty scheduled with your next service

Frequently asked

Does it void my warranty?
The opposite — most manufacturers now require one to keep the warranty valid past year one.
How often does it need cleaning?
Once a year, at the same time as your annual service. It's a five-minute job.
Do I need a flush first?
If the system is old and dirty, yes — otherwise you're just capturing existing sludge. On a clean system, a filter alone is fine.
