Hi my boiler is fitted with a salus filter, the boiler devolped a noise. The heating engineer found blockage in the heat exchanger plate. Does some sludge still get passed mag filters. The system was flushed out a earlier this year and sentinal x100 added. Is salus a poor make of filter. The bolier is 10 years old so is this to be expected. Serviced every year.

Do you have old rads on the system ?
As the magnet filter is only designed as a last resort and will catch some bits but not all

Hi the oldest is about 10 years, replaced some of them last year. One of them unknown make took a bit of flushing out (removed for good flush out) along with the others. Then system flushed out again. The Adey pro check says Corrosion level is moderate, no further action required at this stage
