Boiler noise results from localised boiling of the water. This happens when the inside surface of the boiler becomes too hot due to scale or baked- on sludge deposits.
All systems over five years can suffer noise and new boilers in old systems are especially vulnerable. Add Fernox Boiler Noise Silencer F2 and / or de-scale the boiler with Fernox DS40 System Cleaner and protect with Fernox Protector F1 or Protector + Filter Fluid.
Fernox Protectors are suitable for use on systems of all ages. However, it is advantageous to clean and flush the system with Fernox Cleaner F3 to remove sludge before adding the Protector F1. Alternatively, the universal Fernox Filter Fluid+ Protector can deliver sludge and debris to an existing in-line filter or a newly installed TF1 Filter, whilst protecting the system
No, the TF1 Omega Filter has been designed to ensure that even when it reaches a level of maximum collection, system water can still pass through the filter, short-circuiting the body, and flowing freely through the manifold.
Soft and hard limescale on radiator walls can drastically reduce their ability to heat rooms efficiently. The problem often revolves around the boiler heat exchanger where the temperature is hottest, but deposits in radiators and pipework also lessen the effectiveness of the whole system. It is therefore important to consider the whole central heating system when checking and establishing why
