A magnetic filter is an innovative device designed to protect your central heating system by capturing and removing magnetite (black iron oxide sludge) that builds up in your pipework and radiators over time. At VFR Plumbing Heating & Gas, we specialise in installing these essential components across Dover, Folkestone, and Canterbury to help homeowners maintain efficient heating systems and extend the lifespan of their boilers.
Magnetite build-up is one of the primary causes of heating system inefficiency and breakdowns. It can cause blockages, reduce heat transfer in radiators, and damage important components in your boiler. By installing a magnetic filter, you can prevent these issues and ensure your heating system operates at peak performance.
Our experienced engineers make the installation process quick and straightforward, with minimal disruption to your home. The advantages of having a magnetic filter are substantial for any central heating system.
A magnetic filter protects your boiler from harmful debris, significantly extending its operational lifespan and reducing the likelihood of costly repairs.
By maintaining clear pipework and preventing sludge build-up, your heating system works more efficiently, potentially reducing your energy bills by up to 6%.
With cleaner water circulating through your system, radiators heat up more quickly and evenly, providing better comfort throughout your home.
Regular servicing is simplified, and the risk of breakdowns is minimised, saving you money on emergency repairs and maintenance visits.
Our installation service begins with a thorough assessment of your heating system to determine the optimal location for your magnetic filter. We typically install the filter on the return pipe to your boiler, where it can capture the maximum amount of debris before it enters your boiler. The installation takes approximately 1-2 hours, and our engineers ensure all work is carried out to the highest standards, with minimal mess and disruption to your home.
