FAQs

How much Mc3+ do I need for my system?

Generally, 5 litres of Mc3+ is sufficient for a standard residential heating system, but always check the specific dosage instructions based on the total water volume of the system.

Can I leave the Mc3+ in the system indefinitely?

No. The Mc3+ is a cleaner and should be drained from the system after the cleaning process is complete. It should be replaced with a system inhibitor to prevent corrosion.

Is it safe for all radiator types?

Yes, it is formulated to be safe for use with common materials found in modern heating systems, including steel, copper, and aluminum.

Do I need a power flushing machine to use this?

While it can be used with a power flushing machine for best results, it is also effective when circulated through the system using the existing central heating pump.

How do I dispose of the spent cleaner?

Follow local environmental regulations for disposing of chemical cleaning agents; do not pour into the storm drain.

Troubleshooting

System efficiency does not improve after one treatment

If the system is heavily fouled, a second, more intensive cleaning cycle may be required, or mechanical power flushing might be necessary.

Foaming during the cleaning process

This is often a sign of excess cleaning agent. Ensure you have followed the recommended dosage for your system volume.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly improves system heat transfer efficiency
  • Removes stubborn magnetite sludge and mineral deposits
  • Cost-effective 5-litre bulk size for frequent users
  • Compatible with a wide range of heating and condenser systems

Cons

  • Requires manual system drainage and flush
  • Not suitable for use in systems with active, severe leaks
  • Requires proper disposal handling per local regulations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the Adey Mc3+, first ensure the system is switched off. The chemical should be introduced via an accessible point, such as a magnetic filter or a radiator bleed point. Compatibility is broad, as the formula is designed to be safe for common metals, including copper, brass, and steel, used in standard HVAC systems. Always consult the system manufacturer's guidelines regarding chemical additives before application. After the cleaning process, ensure the system is completely flushed and refill it with fresh water and a suitable corrosion inhibitor to protect against future buildup.
