PLACEMENT OF ADEY'S MAGNACLEAN FILTER

[CHRISTOPHER2023]

Good morning I have a Adey's magnaclean filter fitted onto the flow pipe ,and when i had it serviced the plumber said all that is going into it was clean water and it should be on the return ? can you help.

Preferably on the return but having one is much better than not.

It’s in the installation manual they return is best practice, but if space is tight, then flow can be used.

If an open vented system, then be aware you mustn't put a valved filter between the boiler and the vent.

You should really get that installed onto the return, as close to the boiler as possible. I have been to boilers not even 12 months old with blocked plate heat exchangers and sticking/leaking diverters as all the dirt in system gets filtered by the boiler and not the filter! It can also affect any sort of manufacturers warranty not being on the return.
