4.2Treatment of Water Circulating Systems

All recirculatory water systems will be subject to corrosion unless they are flushed and an appropriate water treatment is applied. To prevent this, follow the guidelines given in BS 7593 “Treatment of Water in Domestic Hot Water Central Heating Systems” and the treatment manufacturers instructions.

Treatment must involve the use of a proprietary cleanser, such as Sentinel X300 or X400, or Fernox F3 and an inhibitor such as Sentinel X100 or Fernox MB-1.

Full instructions are supplied with the products, for further information contact Sentinel (0800 389 4670) or Fernox (0870 870 0362).

Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system will invalidate the appliance warranty.

It is important to check the inhibitor concentration after installation, system modification and at every service in accordance with the inhibitor manufacturer’s instructions. (Test kits are available from inhibitor stockists.)

For information or advice regarding any of the above contact Technical Enquiries 0844 871 1555.
