Hi I am considering getting a MagnaCleanse as I have had a quote for a boiler replacement accepted on the condition it is flushed using one.
The worry I have is using the vibrating hammer thing that comes with it on rads on microbore systems, as I have visions of it dislodging lumps of muck that then get stuck in the first inaccessible bend or kink in the pipe!
Any thought or experiences ?
Thanks Dave.

Towel heaters not getting hot in small pipe system
I have just moved into a late 1990s new-build house with a small bore (about 1/2" OD pipes) gas fired boiler central heating system. All the normal radiators get hot but two of the three towel heater/radiators don't get hot and the pipes feeding them are cool to the touch even after the boiler...

This issue arose about a year ago. Does anyone have an idea why I occasionally hear (about once every hour or longer) a hammer related noise coming from my copper water pipes when no water is being used? It basically sounds like the noise you hear after the water shuts off when your toilet bowl...
