Vailant have their kit now a separator and filter and say no inhibitor
if you go on the course vaillant say the air seperator romoves all the micro bubbles and the magnet catches any debris they also want a ph level low
supposedly if you have flushed the system correctly you get the correct Ph level the air searator will take any air put back in with top up out of the system so theretically shouldnt affect the PH level, but i suppopse you need to check every service interval. dont shoot me i am only the messenger lolWhat happens when the customer tops the system up that's what I want to know it's going to send the ph out of wack
Surely all the more reason to fit one. Then the air would also be being removed continually?
- on open vented or systems with plastic pipework you are wasting your time with deaeration as air is being introduced continually
I know a guy in Kent who fits one on every new boiler install (Veissmann).
Aaron...you got his name? first will be ok
No need another thing to go wrong, just make sure the system is correctly installed and air tight

Interesting Shaun. So what happens to the free oxygen created by heating the water, by cavitation of not perfect fittings etc?
It is and it isn't! Removing it means pressure loss which means introducing more aerated water.
As above. But he hasn’t started work yet. Why don’t you give him a call mate and ask him?
Will be a bit late if you ask for it on the day and he hasn’t got one
@Best Thanks for your reply. We’ve got plastic pipes, to the Radiators, in the 2 Extensions that were added to the house, by the previous occupier. The rest are copper..
But I just got a call from my RG Installer. (We’ve had to put the installation back a day, to Tuesday) He says we don’t need to have the Spirovent RV2 de-aerator fitted..!
The ATAG Economiser has a built in ‘air-vent’ and as it’s going upstairs, at the highest point in the system, I don’t need an Aearator.
So that’s a hundred odd quid he’s saved me!
I knew I liked him!
Okay, - so it is because you have some of your system piped in plastic pipework, that aerator is to be fitted?

Do you use Virgin now?Yes I had the one control but not impressed with that it's to complicated and is difficult to set up and operate for the end user , I changed my broadband supplier and have not been able to pair it since so use it as a normal stat. Kop
