The heating system of the UK Scout Headquarters at Gilwell Park in Chingford has been protected with a BoilerMag XT heating system filter.
Hertfordshire based installers Mechanical Control, replaced two old Strebel boilers in the plant room with new Ideal Evomax boilers as well as installing a BoilerMag XT to prevent the build-up of ferrous oxide in the heating system.
Wesley Warren, Operations Director at Mechanical Control, said: “It’s quite an old heating system, therefore we wanted to offer the best protection for the new boilers. To do so, we needed a good quality filter that could be easily removed and cleaned.
“We have used the domestic BoilerMag filters on many jobs and always been impressed with the quality, so we decided the commercial BoilerMag would be the best way to go. The magnet looks great and the unit was really simple to install and maintain. We will be fitting BoilerMag XT commercial heating system filters on all future plant upgrades.”
The plant room is situated in The White House, which has been the UK headquarters of The Scout Association since April 2001. The building also serves as a hotel with 41 guest bedrooms, and has a number of conference rooms on the ground floor.
Said to be ideal for large heating systems, Boilermag XT utilises flow technology to ensure that unwanted debris is removed from the heating system. This helps to reduce energy bills, increase the life of the boiler and reduce maintenance call outs.
The BoilerMag XT is available in sizes 2 to 12 inch, has an operating pressure of up to 12 bar and comes complete with a 10 year warranty.
