I would say that that TF1 has stronger magnet, is easier to fit, easier to clean and also has a cyclonic action to take other bits not just magnetic parts, magnaclean has awful valves but can be fitted in tighter locations and is slightly smaller. Hope that helps!
Excellent little video - after lots of confusion watching other videos, yours was great… easy to follow and made sense and helped me clean out my filter. Thanks very much. A “like & subscribe” are on their way…!!
Hi Dave, Thanks for your comment. You can fit one of the Fernox TF1 filters to an existing central heating system, ideally located on the return of the central heating near to the boiler!
Does it matter which isolation valve end is used to flush the contents out as my filter''s fitted to a fairly long straight pipe that then bends back upwards into the boiler so would make sense to open the top one using gravity in the flow direction as shown in your video
I've had one of these for a few years - first couple of flushes a lot came out, but now my annual flush produces very little sediment. Your heat exchanger should last a lot longer
Hi, I'm really pleased with ours. we've had our bolier for 7 years on an old system. The filter always has a bit of sediment but not much. Cheers for your comment!
Just had a British Gas engineer to service our central heating. Cleaning the fernox filter was part of the service. He was upstairs for no more than 3 minutes. He had no tools with him and no bucket. He came downstairs and said he had done the filter clean and there was nothing in it. When he had gone I saw your video and went onto the British Gas complaints chat forum. The chat advisor contacted the engineer and he said he had done the clean. I asked how without a bowl or bucket. He said he had used a collapsible bottle he had in his pocket. He also said he took it with him when he went. This was after we said that nothing had been emptied down our sink. Is that possible

Hi Fowler. This better than a magna clean?

Another really good video. Are these easy to fit to existing central heating?

What about adding inhibitor I do every other year now I don't get any black muck at all .
Hi, yes, that's definitely worth doing, and i will be doing that next week on my system!

No, definitely not. As you can see, there are a few stages to cleaning the filter, and you always have to flush it out. I doubt it has been done.
