What the Magnetic System Filter Does

A magnetic system filter traps the black iron-oxide sludge and debris that circulates in heating systems, protecting the heat exchanger, pump and valves. Fitting one is one of the best ways to extend boiler life in older Greater Vancouver systems.

A powerful magnet inside the filter body captures magnetic sludge from the system water on every pass; the filter is cleaned during annual service to keep the system clean.

We supply and fit the magnetic system filter as part of a complete boiler repair or new installation, and inspect it during annual maintenance for homes across Greater Vancouver.
