Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.
I am going to be installing a Vailant 937 condensing boiler in the near future to my home heating system, and have been following various threads on this forum for ideas and information.
I have been reading the many arguments regarding the various magnetic filters available and there various problems or lack of filtering ability.
I am a long retired Hospital engineer and I used the excellent Spirax Sarco products for all the hospitals filtering needs be it water or steam, these are available with many different strainer elements to suit all possible situations, what I can't understand is why the plumbing trade do not make use of them.
For the modern addition of magnetic filtering, this is easy to achieve by using the very powerfull Neodium magnets available in many sizes and shapes from good old EBay at a not unreasonable cost. It's not beyond the wit of man to find a way to affix these to the outer case of the brass or bronze case of the bog standard spirax filter in a removeable belt and create your own, very efficient MB3, with a guarrenteed filtration process that will last forever, and have replacement meshes and lid seals available at very little cost from Spirax should you wish to alter the filtration process.
Perhaps I am missing something here, but it seems so simple to do.
Kind regards,
BrianT.
As a PS, why does it take so long for a post to the forum, to appear in print, I am still awaiting an answer to an earlier post on hear.
