ADEY MAGNACLEANSE CLEAN HEATING SYSTEM SLUDGE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 гру 2024
- This video is all about cleaning heating system sludge from your radiators using the Magnacleanse from Adey. I also show you how to use MC5 rapid cleaner and MC1 protector from Adey to ensure your system stays clean. This is often a preferred method to power flushing as we don't pressurise the heating system pipes.

mate I'm in the process of getting quotes to my old familys home, currently we have a open vent pre-condensing installed there, with 12 rads the system is clogged bady on the ground floor, as it hasn't been serviced for over 15 years when I was last there, since the boiler is also being swapped I wanted to get some advice, two people have called in for a quote, have said only do a chemical treatment, not power flush., as far as i am aware a chemical treatment two weeks before won't help remove the sludge. that's causing the issues, so would you recommend a full power flush as well before installation? or is it a requirement to do a powerflush with new installs ?
I am currently renovating a House in North Yorkshire that's been empty and the heating system has been shut down for over 18 months. Yes you can guess my problem, and that's why the Magnacleanse system would help me in my plight to completely satisfy the customer without looking a right charlie. Fantastic video tutorial by the way. Keep up the great work.
This is why I became an apprentice plumber love showing customers the benefits of flushing a system, my boss has a power flush so it’s interesting to see how effective the magnacleanse is without the pump used on a power flush! Great vids man!
Just wanted to say how much I enjoy you video clips. I am just a telephone engineer who knows nothing about plumbing but try to educate myself with your light hearted clips. Well done 👍
Another fantastic video. I have cleaned so many systems over the years, but I have to say magna clean way is the easiest way and the cleanest.
Hi Garry would you say the Magnacleanse is as good as most powerflush machines or do u still use others thanks
Depends on how bad the system is.
Most manufacturers do like us to use a powerflsh, as the pump on the boiler (combi or system) does all the work and sends all debris through the new boiler.
As long as its being cleaned can't see a prob.
The amount of people on here moaning about the cost of starting up! It takes money to make money if you don't want to spend out then go and work in a shop. Really good clear guide here again many thanks.
Thanks Ads!
Hey James,
Another great video! I really really really want & need this MagnaCleanse! I left the marines after 10 years and have spent the last 18 months transitioning into civvi life. I worked for a plumber for 6 months whilst putting myself through Gas safe & Hetas tickets. Then went at it alone to try & push my capabilities on, it's been a steep learning curve and I'm still learning everyday. The MagnaCleanse is what all the plumbers, I consider, the most professional & knowledgeable use and at the moment I have nothing to mechanically clean a system out because as you know there is an endless list of things to buy being a plumber and I am constantly Harry Von skint batts! I really want to do the most professional and thorough job I possibly can and I'd do unspeakable things for you to give me a MagnaCleanse.
Cheers,
Karl.

As a Gas Engineer, I diagnose many faults with Boilers, but most of all, I always come across systems that are always sludged up. I mostly just flush out Domestic Hot Water Heat Exchangers, and recommend a mate to other customers who need a full Power Flush, but I would like to get into Full Power Flushing myself. I used to train with a Plumber many years ago, who showed me the Power Flushing side, and considering the amount of systems I come across which are clogged, I’d rather do this as well. Great video, keep up the great work! 👍👍❤️
Super video thanks James as always! I should win because I'm not a plumber just an average DIYer who has learned how to successfully install all new radiator valves and TRVs, a new heating pump, Magnaclean filter, automatic bypass valve, 2 motorised valves (effectively zoning my heating system), a hot water cylinder thermostat and a Nest thermostat all from watching your super videos and if I win I promise to clean all my friends and family's heating systems free of charge to give back for all the labour costs you have saved me - even if I don't win thank you again 😉

This geezer is a foooooking legend, he just keeps saving me a few quid 👏🏻
I love the magnacleanse unit, as like you, I also have a power flush which is great for system that are really blocked, however, most of the time these do just as good of a job but not putting the systems under any pointless stress.
I'm currently doing one myself as I type.
The only thing I would say though, is it's best to valve and cap the F+E tank, an connect a water main to the unit one end, and drain hose to the drain off, that way, you can ensure that the fresh water makes it's way fully around every radiator.
Good video 👍
Cool video, nice to see someone representing the heating industry in such a positive way.
I just qualified and started myself as a Gas engineer in April there really enjoying it. I have seen a couple of videos on these now really do look the business for cleaning out the system. This would really come in handy for me heading into my first Winter working later this year with all the chaos and nonstop work that comes along with it! Also having to go try hire a powerflush machine at the moment isn't ideal when someone else has it 😑 Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Mate I have been watching your videos since the start. I’ve followed all your tips and advice. You inspired me to become a qualified plumber. I’ve now done all my courses and set up a business. I’ve been eyeing those manga cleanses but having recently started out its cost me a fortune getting a van, tools and many other things etc so I just can’t afford one yet. I know to win one of those would be amazing and would give me another string to my bow being able to clean systems where currently I have to recommend other companies meaning I lose the job, a potential new customer and money which I could really do right now.
Even if I don’t win mate keep the videos coming they are top quality and love them. Keep the top tips coming as well they’re awesome. 👍👍👍👍👍 cheers Paul

ADEY I won the competition and still waiting for it to arrive. So shouldn’t need to buy another one. Thank you anyway!
Congratulations Paul!
You normally only get to do powerflushes when you change a boiler... never heard of anyone making a living out of power flushing alone
Jeremy western that’s not true. People get powerflushes when they fit a manga clean or other magnetic prevention device or they ask for one when they get multiple cold spots in rads due to years of untouched system water. There’s no rule that says boiler should be changed as well.
I think this system is so much better than others as it doesn’t put strain on pipework which in my case is very fragile. Great video as usual. Good job

I’ve had issues with my 100 year old Chicago boiler system since we moved in in 2017. We’ve even replaced the boiler twice!
I’m sold that this is the solution. My current NTI boiler keeps shutting off in the middle of the night and I have to reset it and bring the pressure back up for it to start again. When it does, it comes up to temp so slowly.
I’ve seen the sludge in it last visit and I’m convinced it’s never been cleaned in 100 years.
I don’t know why companies in the USA don’t install these everywhere in Chicago.
I could have really done with this the other day. 18 year old boiler, 13 rads, no magnacleanse, no nothing. The last rad on the system, was pretty much a mould for sludge. So it was easier to put the rad out, take it outside and TRY to clean it with the customers pressure washer, but that shit wasn't going anywhere. Basically they ended up with 2 new rads and a magnaclean and a plumber that just wanted to get home, have a beer and watch the footie while the Mrs stares at me with those, "I'm getting a back massage tonight until you hands bleed" look.
HAHA!

Thanks for the video! Currently in training trying to get in to the trade while working at my usual job. While watching your videos I have been taking note of the tools and recommendations, building up a tool kit. This would be a great addition. Freebies aside, thanks again for the time you spend getting these videos out. They are a great help!
I’m a boiler engineer and been wanting one for along time

Remember it is good practice to put the waste hose water in the sewer rather than rainwater drain. Possibly it's a combined waste water drain! Keep the rivers clear of the chemicals. Good explanation.
Hi James, Me and my brother went halves on a power flush machine years ago. Im the poor sod who has to store it in my garage and I have naff all room as it is. A tidy little adey would sit nice in its position so I can make him store the big thing in his garage for once!

Hi I'm researching about radiators this looks like such a gr8 system. Radiators are still pretty new here in NZ, very expensive to have installed. UK people that come here are amazed at the expensive houses with no heating systems! 😂
After passing off many big cleaning jobs to my mate with his own flushing machine I think a Magnacleanse will allow me to undertake a few on my own.
Great vid and tutorial as per usual Master James..
Keep up the great work.

How did it work out? Good product? We are wanting our system flushed and rebalanced. Local company has magnacleanse.
Hi James I'm a mature apprentice that as qualified in April now I've started out on my own plumbing n heating business brave step to do, I was fed up rushing and doing half jobs which was against my grain in how to do a proper job so I decided to take the plunge and start out on my own as Dhm plumbing & heating and it's been 2 weeks so far.. so expensive starting out so much costs before making any coin.then it's trying to find the jobs, scary. I've advance my learning ability from watching your videos. It's been a long and hard 4 years as apprentice especially when your wife is the many bread winner and all your mates are going on holiday and buying nice things while I'm watching my pounds n budgeting my life style for this plumbing qualification. It got to point that I was going to give up but I never. But I did this so I could have a future and a career and was fed up seeing cowboys ripping people off and as time moves on more plastic and less traditional methods of a plumbers skills with copper and benders. In my new plumbing business I'll always keep the traditional way with some brasso. My life has been on hold! I'm sure you can understand. I've bought most of my tools from eBay and secondhand during my time as apprentice.
I have the magnaclean demo jar that I use to show customers buy having a filter fitted thus is how it works but my having something like a magnacleanse would be a even better part of my toolkit and for my future clients and good for my business. I would even pay for the postage!
I got a 2003 berlingo van but I've had to spend £800 on it so far🙁🙁🙁, now it's in the garage for a new ignition switch which means more costs. My first week running my own business first job service oil boiler I sliced my thumb by losing the grib from removing the heat exchanger bolts and slipped and hit against the metal casing I could see bone and blood was gasping everywhere nightmare, i was off for first week no earning gutted.so I made use and went round and posted business cards through doors and spoke to customers. Thumb healed but I can't fully give thumbs up on my right hand. at least I'll always remember my first job. Lucky I'm booked in next week to go back and finish off there boiler service.
What lengths you do for a trade.
Please James I'll send you a weak thumbs up. Even one of your tshirts would be fantastic as there's some people out there who don't even ask if you would like a cuppa even when you've been there for a few days, I don't get it.
Like it 👍 great piece of kit. I am fitting MagnaCleans to my own house, mother and brother's houses so winning this would be an awesome help cleaning out the systems that have had no TLC in years.

Great informative video James. How would I connect the Magnacleanse to a radiator.
Simple, fantastic bit of kit, good description of use, impressive 👍
Wicked product. I would love one of these. Just passed water regs exam. Getting there in the best trade in the works. It would be a great addition to my tool box. Great vid.

Been an avid watcher of your videos for a few years now and love all the stuff you do on fb and in the gas magazines. Would love a manga cleanse as it would really help me out with future jobs and it’s great to be able to show the customer just what sort of job a powerflush does.
Ah dude this comp is over now! Thanks for the comment though. Glad to help you out bro!
Handy little video. I’ve been thinking about getting one of these for ages, but I’m too tight! You did the final flush how I would, and how every other sane plumber I know would, by just using the f&e head. I think when these first came out Adey were saying to make a temp connection in the loft between the ball valve and the cold feed and flush under mains pressure. Sod that! That’s a recipe for disaster. Anyway I’ve got a combi swop to do in about three weeks and seeing this video I’ve decided now I’m gonna buy the magnacleanse. I’d love to get a free one obviously but to be honest I think you should pick a couple of guys who have just completed their apprenticeships. We all know quality tools are a massive expense when first starting out and this would do someone a right turn. Just get adey to post mine to me directly, with the amount I’ve spent on filters and chemicals over the years if they did a points scheme I’d have about ten of these by now!
And did I spy the oil hose outside of the case on that vortex? Tut tut. 😀
Do you know if they sell an adapter to go onto the tf1 filters or the dreadful spirotecs that BG insist on pushing on the unsuspecting public?
Hi Wayne, hope you're enjoying your new MagnaCleanse? Have you signed up to the ADEY ProClub yet? It's our new rewards scheme for loyal installers. Download the app today 👍
ADEY hi. Thank you for your reply. I wasn’t aware of your new scheme. I will be signing up ASAP. Do you know if there are any plans to release adaptors for other filters? Regards wayne.
Hi James, after buying our house, with a very old system. I've been watching your videos to slowly renovate our home, they've really helped me. We've had a few problem with our heating and I've followed your remove a radiator and clean it video a few times to try and help the system, which it has. Now with our first baby on the way, I won't have as much time on my hands, so if I won this it would help us massively. Thanks
I work in an office as a procurement professional. I have no relation to plumbing/gas but I've just sat for 20 minutes and watched this 😂😂. I want to change profession
Hi James after 22 years in the army I am now just getting into the trade this would be a great addition to my non existent tool kit 🤞

Bope you enjoy guys! I spent a lot of time trying to cover all the bases but must have missed something or got something wrong. I'm sure you lovely people out there will point it out...be kind! Here's a link to my Instagram: instagram.com/plumberparts That's where the competition is!
I definitely could do with one of these I’m obsessed with cleanliness and this looks like a fantastic colonic irrigation system.... oh and will be extremely useful for satisfying my degunking heating systems obsession...and I’m always fearful of the powerflushs ability to cause vindaloo like explosions.
plumberparts Fancy coming out to stay free in a chateau in North France to flush out radiators in exchange? Happy to pay for the chemicals. Stay for a week, just bring the kit out with you. Napoléonic Chateau awaits you & your family free holiday! Hold tight!!!!
Our ceneral heating tank in the loft is disgusting! It's crying out for a deep clean! Would love to save my dad some money, keep my family warm this winter, and learn a lot more in the proccess! I love learning how to fix something instead of paying someone else (and not learning) whereever possible.
You are a Great genuine person God bless your heart, I don't want anything I just want to wish you a happier life and all the success for sharing your great stuff on UA-cam. (Norfolk follower)
Thank you
I've never had to come back to cleanse a system that has the filter on the system. It's usually good enough if it's kept clean, John plumber. Ireland
Why are all these lovely plumbing video makers Eastenders. I can barely understand a word. I am sure its all good advice. Previous search ,found a geezer whose pronunciation of taaaaal threw me until l realised he meant 'towel' .
CHILL GEEZER! 😂😂
Great Informational Vid 👍. I am a level 3 Plumbing and Heating apprentice, I am so keen to make sure all systems I work on are as clean as possible. This MagnaCleanse looks like a great bit of kit for such jobs. Keep up the amazing Work PP 👊.

That is an awesome bit of equipment, so much easier than setting up a powerflush machine and the peace of mind that you get from it, not worrying if it's going to overflow or burst the pipes makes it even more impressive.
I love to win this and good luck to everyone who needs one too. Great video and it's time for quorf-feee

Yes but it is nowhere near as effective as a proper Powerflush machine, nowhere near.
What a piece of kit to have on hand. Great video.
Would like to own one of these for my 11 rad house 😂
Have always wanted one of these. Makes life so much easier. A really nice piece of kit

Nice job. Regularly use this but I I have found the reverse flush on other flushing machines can clear crap especially on microbore systems
I’ve just gone self employed and this would be great! Saves me forking out for one
Another great video James, I am always being asked by customers if I can clean their system after they have watched me removing a rad and having a bucket full of black sludge. My answer is always no and I pass them on to someone who can. If I was to win it would give me the opportunity to answer yes.

i watch all your videos which drive the Mrs nuts have been doing small jobs for friends and family think its time to branch out on my own this will help me a lot keep up the good work on the videos love the new studio
So, magna clean on the system....so, you turn up with a double magna clean to clean out the system, hmm, I am a little dated in yesteryear, where no system had any filters, but they ran for decades without issues. I do greatly enjoy your videos. Peace brother.
Brilliant video, would like to ask when u close the radiators apart the one what we flush, are we closing TRV just or both valves
Thank you
I think I should win one because my radiators are probably worse than those ones and the Magnacleanse makes it look like a nice simple straight forward job!!
This would be amazing for the new house to freshen up the heating system
Hi James, a little off piste - the flow and return pipework diagram show for the equivalent F&E system would be appreciated but my boiler is wall mounted in the kitchen close to the ceiling so where can I fit the proposed magna clean filter on the return side in the airing cupboard with the hot water cylinder 22mm pipework..? Thank you.
I’d love one of these please just to help a mate out who’s rads we’re literally blocked solid, got it moving with mc5 but now needs a clean!
He couldn’t get a plumber back as he wasn’t interested so had a cold winter!!
But really don’t want to use a power flusher. Adey baby!!
Do you have to blank the feed and expansion as you would if powerflushing ?
Great video. How long do you reckon a house with 8 radiators would take. Thanks
I’m a apprentice plumber ( level 2 ) . Just bought my first house with wife so have no idea what state heating system is in . Recently stumbled upon your content which I like so feel this would be a great tool for me personally and professionally ( I all goes well ) 🤞🤞
Great videos well done, Now I must have a thermal camera, but which one do you use, please
Great video! Also love the thermal camera, makes its very clear to see where the sludge is. Thanks for sharing. I should need one of these in my life as my customers are proper dirty!

Excellent video has always Jimmy. I am always learning addition information from you about real life plumbing jobs that you don't learn while studying at college learning the best trade in the world. Who ever win this competition will have a good C/H cleaning system !! Well done mate :)
I think I deserve this, as I would give this to my cousin who has done all my plumming work for free and wouldn't take a penny :) ...this would help me pay him back !!!. And remember to hold tight !!!
Who liked this :)
looking to do this. just wondering would you not clean magnets before clean flushing. ?
The stage where you add the inhibitor after the flush is missing? Is mentioned as being done, but that section was not covered?
Have u fitted a wood stove cooker that suppies central heating radiators?
Great explanation on how to use the kit. I’d love it to clean my system as there isn’t room to install a permanent Magnacleanse and with the horrible microbore in the walls I don’t trust a power clean.
Another great vid James, I should win this awsome piece of kit because next to Emily I am your GREATEST fan and you can never have enough T shirts.

what we did on our house is the following, on the radiator bleed valve of the radiator, take off the radiator bleed valve, put a 1/8th nipple put it to a T then one end has the bleed valve, the other end has adapters that transitions to a hose adapter with a valve and a cap..
anytime you want to power flush the unit just connect a hose to the valve, close the return open the valve, have one person put the feeder on high pressure, and watch all the sludge push out.
going to make a video on it soon =D.
I notice you cut out the actual removal of the magnaclean :-) When newly installed the the retaining/removing clip with the red knob may work fine but after some time on there it does not come off easy. I had to remove the 22mm connections and pull the whole magnaclean out then take it to a workbench to shift the bloody thing with numerous taps of a rubber mallet.
Hi Plumberparts you do some great video's and I'm especially interested in this one because are radiators have had problems ever since we move in about 9 years ago I think it couldn't save us a lot of money having a done and I think you will get twice or three times as more sludge out of our radiators then the one on the video when we come to turn on the radiators in the winter I have to go round with a hammer to get all the valves working again properly.

Thanks for the great videos! Very informative!!
I’ve recently purchased a Magnacleanse, treated my 20 rad system and running the cleanse for a few days. I have an SDS drill and will agitate my rads too
3 question please -
(1) should I open the lock shield when agitating the rad to allow best flow and removal of magnetite?
(2) should I also isolate the rad in my hall where the thermostat is? (Lockshields only, no TRVs) so I only have one rad open at a time
(3) finally, should I reduce the output of my boiler when only one rad is open? It’s a 10 yr old BAXI SOLO 30 HE. Not sure if it modulates output
Many thanks.
I would love this bit of kit just registered as my own business 2 months ago would help me grow my business massively. Been watching your videos since I started my plumbing at college 7 years ago always watched them in class.

Great, I started my own business and it would be very useful for me such a miracle
Hi. Just started new business as Gas engineer.
Need this for my business. Very handy ☺️
Hi there great video. Bit of advice please. My combi boiler system is sludged up and needs cleaning but worried about powerflushing due to it causing a pin hole somewhere. Is this Adey system a good alternatibe? Thanks in advance
thanks for the very informative videos ... i enjoy watching them .,. my best regards
I’m regularly fitting magnacleans to customers systems and I’ve had my eye on one of these for quite some time , amazing bit of kit and something that clearly does the job right . I’d love it if I won I could clean half the south east with one of these !!! 😬
I wonder if you pump in reverse direction you damage the heater pump or the thermostatic radiator valves
What is best Compact Thermal Cameras do you recommend
I’d love to win this, bloody hate a powerflush every time you do one can guarantee a pinhole. This looks like a much safer easier bit of kit, plus saves renting the machine from Jewsons constantly.
Anyway man keep up the good work 👍🏻

Hey! When would you use the magnacleanse over taking each radiator off the wall and flushing it with a hose?
I did that, but be prepared for oily sludge drips on your carpet as you take it outside for flushing, plus it’s a pain going around every rad (I have 20!), disconnecting it, stripping threads etc okay for homeowner but this is quicker for a tradesman
Can you let the sludge cleaner fluid run through the hot water tank or should the tank be isolated?
Hi James the Magnaclense look great would be great to be able to clean heating systems. love your videos every week keep it up the reason I get up on a Saturday if not working.

Really nice bit of kit. Would really like one to help out with recent new start. Love the videos really helpful info for massive audience been watching for years
Fully gas qualified for a year now and would like to go self employed but the cost of tools/insurance/van holding me back. Any chance to get myself tools for free is I'll be jumping at it!! Used the MagnaCleanse before at work and is a must if you're wanting to give the systems a longer life
Great video, been wanting to get my hands on one of these bad boys for a while, but feeding the kids and paying the mortgage apparently is more important 🙄 keep up the good work JimBob !!!
Hi James, this looks like a lovely compact bit of kit, been consiering adding powerflushing to my repatoir for some years now. Omg would be a great prize to win! 👍
Looking for pro opinions on the way MagnaCleanse process which was recently carried out on our system
We have just had this done as part of a new boiler installation, but the way the installers carried it out seemed to me very different to the by-the-book way or even the way I’ve seen in some other videos which cover the process and the installer varies things slightly. I raised concerns with our fitters about how their methods differed but their reaction was like I was crazy and they were doing it the correct way
They hit the radiators with a hammer, not tapping but bashing them as if you were trying to break through a wall. They didn’t do it on all the radiators only some of them. When I asked why they don’t use an SDS and the tool with the kit I was told it was because it damages the enamel on the radiator. From what I’ve seen in videos this is only when they do it wrong or on extremely old rads (ours aren’t)
They also only cold flushed the downstairs radiators and said they didn’t have to do the upstairs ones because they are on the same loop. If this is a thing, should the same loop upstairs radiator have been on or off when they did this as some seem to have been left on and some off? They hooked up a hose directly to the ends of the downstairs radiators and ran it outside rather than connecting up to the filter connections near the (freshly installed boiler).
Does what I described above seem reasonable? We are paying for this and it was apparently a required part of the install to get the full boiler warranty. Somehow I feel cheated because it seems like they didn’t do it properly. This is quite a big accredited company, authorised installer for the boiler we chose, with good reviews and has multiple installers so not a solo dodgy guy which made this all the more surprising
