Evening hive-mind,
Yesterday I serviced a 5yr old Ideal combi. When I took the top off the magnaclean, (which was chocka,) I was alarmed to see the system water was the colour & consistency of cream of tomato soup! I didn't need a test kit to realise that there's no inhibitor in the system. Obviously the system is corroding from the inside out. It's piped up entirely in plastic with normal steel panel rads.
My question is would a p-flush & retreatment be the way forward or is the damage already done & he'll have to have all the rads changed?
