This system can lead to annual savings of 6% on heating bills in typical three-bedroom homes, based on independent research. It also extends the lifespan of the central heating system, comes with a 2-year warranty, and contributes to reduced carbon emissions. Specifically designed for larger heating systems, it incorporates 360° rotational valves for versatile installation options, an ultra-thin sheath for enhanced magnetic capture, an improved sheath design for dual non-magnetic capture, and a greater overall filter capacity. The bi-directional flow allows either port to function as an inlet, increasing installation flexibility. The Pro2XP's enhanced capacity is ideal for capturing larger volumes of magnetite, making it the perfect solution for more extensive central heating setups. It features specially designed 28mm valves, an ultra-thin sheath, dual capture chambers, a larger canister, and increased sludge capacity to effectively remove debris from larger systems with more radiators. Installer benefits include a design optimized for larger systems, greater filter capacity, unique full-flow 28mm valves, 360-degree rotational valves for multiple installation choices, bi-directional flow for flexibility, an ultra-thin sheath for superior magnetic capture, a low-profile drain valve for easier servicing and dosing, an improved sheath for dual non-magnetic capture, and rapid fit connectors for quicker servicing. Homeowner benefits include potential 6% annual savings on heating bills, immediate and ongoing system protection, extended system life, and reduced carbon emissions.
This guide is for homeowners and professional installers looking to protect and maintain larger central heating systems. The Adey MagnaClean PRO2 XP 28mm Filter offers superior protection against damaging sludge and debris, potentially saving you money on heating bills.

FAQs
How often should I clean the filter?
The frequency depends on your system. Initially, check it after a few weeks. After that, inspect it annually or as recommended by your heating engineer.
Can I install the filter myself?
It's recommended that installation be performed by a qualified heating engineer to ensure proper operation and warranty compliance.
What is the warranty period?
The MagnaClean® Professional2 XP comes with a 2-year warranty.
What happens if I don't clean the filter?
Failure to clean the filter can lead to reduced heating efficiency, potential damage to the boiler and pump, and voiding of your warranty.
Does the filter remove all debris?
The filter effectively removes a significant amount of debris, including black iron oxide and other sludge. However, it may not remove all debris and additional system cleaning might be needed for heavily contaminated systems.
Is the filter compatible with all types of boilers?
The filter is compatible with most boiler types, but it's essential to check the pipe size (28mm) and consult with a heating engineer to confirm compatibility with your specific system.
Troubleshooting
Reduced heating efficiency or cold spots in radiators.
Check and clean the filter according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the system is properly balanced and that no airlocks are present.
Unusual noises coming from the boiler or pump.
Check the filter for debris. If cleaning doesn't resolve the issue, consult a heating engineer as the noise could indicate other system problems.
Slow heating or failure to reach desired temperature.
Inspect the filter and remove any accumulated sludge. Also, check the system's water pressure and ensure the boiler is operating correctly.
Leakage around the filter.
Check the connections and seals for damage. Tighten any loose connections. If the leak persists, replace any worn components.
