At RMC we can install, remove redundant pipework and radiators to your needs. Our qualified engineers will walk you step-by-step through the process with your heating system.
You may think all radiators are born equal, but you’d be wrong. Radiator performance has improved a huge amount in response to quality and performance regulations. In fact, modern radiators can be up to 50% more efficient than their year 2000 counterparts. This increased efficiency leads to a decrease in energy bills, meaning that your new radiators will eventually pay for themselves. Modern radiators also channel water more efficiently, with hot water coming into contact with more radiator surface space, whilst using much less water. To ensure you have the correct size radiator to heat your room efficiently, you can use a BTU (British Thermal Unit) calculator and take the guesswork out of the equation.
MagnaCleanse is a new flushing process designed to maintain and protect all domestic central heating systems from the damaging effects of iron oxide sludge build up. Not only does it clean the system, it provides ongoing protection for the boiler with the installation of a MagnaClean filter. This protection lasts throughout the lifetime of the boiler and helps to reduce central heating energy bills by up to 6%.
The objective is to catch and remove deposits of iron oxide sludge, rust and any other magnetic debris from the radiators and pipework and restore systems with circulation problems or boiler noises caused by the murky water and corrosion deposits. MagnaCleanse in conjunction with a permanently installed MagnaClean filter can remove these deposits and the problems that they cause.
While power flushing is extremely effective when carried out by a qualified engineer, it's a fact that the build up of iron oxide is an ongoing issue within the system. MagnaCleanse delivers an extremely effective solution because it not only removes just as much sludge from the heating system, it also provides ongoing lifetime protection with the installation of a MagnaClean domestic filter.
Some of the main signs that your system could need a system MagnaCleanse with a MagnaClean filter installed:
- Cold areas on radiators (usually at the bottom)
- Excessive noise from the boiler or the heating system pump
- Reduced boiler performance
- Discoloured brown/black water when you bleed/vent the radiators
- A general slow warming of the central heating system
