Water, if not properly treated, is never 100% clean and, in fact, often contains debris, iron particles, sludge, sand, and other impurities that, by depositing, negatively affect the efficiency and longevity of the plumbing system.
Corrosion, limescale buildup, and bacterial growth are just some of the most common issues that can occur, inevitably causing malfunctions, breakdowns, and unexpected expenses.
Can water quality be improved?
The answer is naturally affirmative, as in the field of plumbing there is a type of product capable of separating and retaining impurities present in the water.
This product is the magnetic dirt separator, presented by the current regulations as mandatory for the correct functioning of the boiler and an excellent ally for protecting the systems.
How do dirt separators work?
The dirt separator is a professional product that improves water quality by filtering it and separating impurities and sludge in suspension, thus preventing them from settling in the pipes and damaging the heating system and some of its key components (such as the heat exchanger and the heat pump).
In Ecoterm dirt separators, the separation and filtration of impurities and sludge in the water flowing through domestic systems is carried out through a filter cylinder inside the device.
Additionally, the core of the dirt separator is the powerful magnetic device that attracts ferrous particles, scale, and debris caused by corrosion.
The sediments, in addition to settling on the surface of the filter cartridge, are captured by the magnetic system and can then be removed by opening the drain valve or with a simple maintenance service by a professional plumber.
It should be noted that a good dirt separator, to perform its function excellently, must be equipped with a powerful and large magnet, whose magnetic field covers the entire section of the filter.
For this reason, Ecoterm dirt separators are equipped with Neodymium magnets @ 12,500 G to ensure outstanding results.
