    Welcome - and how does the comparison between the Fernox TF1 and the Ferdom FD370 compare? I am just in the process of searching and have my types, but terrible confusion in my head.

    Ferdom FD370 - magnet, 0,5 mm mesh + water cyclone - zero videos on YouTube about this product.
    Fernox TF1 - magnet + water cyclone.
    Vortex 300 - magnet and water cyclone.

    No idea now what to choose - I have a heat pump and want to put this in the return to the exchanger - heating is 160 m2 floor + 2 low temperature radiators. 200 litre buffer. Manufacturers do not give flow resistance and for me this is strongly important - how to live here ;-)

    And which heat pump? What wattage? What flow rates? What diameters of the connection pipes?
    To make things more difficult - I would also suggest the AFRISO ADS 180/181 HP separator special for heat pumps - for larger flows - available in 1" and 1.1/4" diameters.
    Some heat pumps already have a magnetic separator built into their "hydroboxes".

    No fact - Nibe 12 kW pump, 22 mm pipe - that pipe which goes from the buffer to the exchanger - the valves are 3/4 and between them a slanted filter which I want to replace with a magnetic one. So the filter needs to be 3/4 no max 1 inch, but then the supply is 3/4 anyway.

    Flows I do not know.

    As for Afriso - I am considering, but 160 ke.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the use of magnetic filters in heating systems, particularly in relation to the Termet Ecocondens Gold stove. Users share their experiences with various types of filters, including brass filters and magnetic desilter filters, highlighting their effectiveness in capturing metallic particles and preventing damage to circulation pumps. The cost of these filters ranges from PLN 350 upwards, with brands like Fernox, Ferdom, and Caleffi being mentioned. Users emphasize the importance of proper installation and maintenance, including the use of inhibitors to protect the system. Concerns about the size and compatibility of filters with existing installations are also raised, along with recommendations for specific models like the Sentinel Vortex 500 and comparisons between different brands. Overall, the consensus is that magnetic filters are beneficial for maintaining system efficiency and longevity.
