I like Adey, they always seem keen to help and their
products are invariably great. Sadly though, things seem to be on the wane.
When you install a new boiler the manufacturers like to see
the CH system thoroughly cleaned out, a task that can often take as long as the
boiler installation itself. So to streamline the process we recently bought a
Adey Magnacleanse, which is a much quicker way of cleaning the gunk out of an old
CH system.
The Magnacleanse has been working brilliantly and we have
absolutely no problems with it at all. However, the easiest way of using the
Magnacleanse is to first fit a Magnaclean unit to the CH system, and sadly the
Magnaclean has been letting us down left, right and centre.
The first one we fitted couldn’t be isolated! No matter what
we did with the isolation valves we couldn’t get them both to close. This is an
essential requirement if you want to use the Magnacleanse or add inhibitor to
the system. We were rather keen to do both and so were doubly frustrated. So
that unit went back and was replaced.
A few weeks later and we pressurise the CH only to discover
a fine spray of water gushing from the Maganaclean. This time the problem was
caused by a split in one of the copper fittings that comes with the unit and so
we had to drain the system, remove the fitting and replace it.
This week’s problem was minor in comparison but seems to
speak volumes about the direction in which the Magnaclean is heading – I opened
the little plastic bag in which the valves arrive only to discover that washers
had only been supplied for one of the valves. So I had to drive back to the
merchants and get them to open up a new Magnaclean so I could nick a washer.
Of course we could be just having a spate of very poor luck
but I think not. I suspect that in an endeavour to keep the price of the
Magnaclean down in the face of growing competition corners have been cut.

don’t strike me as the sort of company that would let this continue for any length of
time so, hopefully we’ll see some improvements over the coming months – I certainly
hope so.
I own a small business for several years now, and I think this can really help improve my company and expand for the next year.plumber melbourne bayside
