Grant’s innovative Protection for central heating systems

In addition to providing reliable, efficient heating solutions for home-owners throughout the UK, Ireland and internationally, leading boiler manufacturer, Grant, has developed the perfect solution to help protect central heating systems with its revolutionary ‘Mag One’ magnetic filter.

Grant’s Mag One triple-action filter is highly efficient and identifies and collects all types of non-ferrous debris and magnetite within the central heating system.

Mark Eccles, Grant NI explains, “Every central heating system should have a magnetic filter fitted as this will help to prevent breakdowns by helping to reduce magnetic and non-ferrous particulate – or sludge – as it’s often referred to.”

Sludge is formed from dirt, water and iron oxide particles. Even small amounts of sludge in a heating system can dramatically decrease its efficiency, causing cold spots in radiators and reducing the lifespan of the boiler.

“Designed to reduce the amount of sludge in the heating system, the Grant Mag One can provide many benefits to home-owners, as it can extend the life of the boiler. In addition, it reduces iron deposit blockages in the heating system, and can improve and maintain central heating efficiency which can help to reduce home heating bills,” adds Mark.

The Grant Mag One is suitable for use with new central heating systems and can be retro-fitted to older ones during boiler replacement or upgrade.

“We receive a lot of positive feedback from plumbers and plumbing and heating merchants about the effectiveness of this product. In terms of emptying the filter, this is very straight forward and is normally done by the plumber during the annual boiler service,” Mark concluded.
