LIFF LIMEFIGHTER QUESTION

[xpressbuyer2day]

Hi guys,

Wanted to know more about your experiences of Liff Limefighter. I am planning to fit this to my boiler water inlet.

I live in a hard water area and want to reduce the effect of limescale on my boiler. I have been told that the Limefighter has a lifetime warranty and is good for this purpose.

What are your opinions on this? Does it really work? Does anyone know how I can test to see if it is working for real?

thanks for all your help guys,

Rog

I went to a boiler and found that a boiler fault had caused the magnetic conditioner to become damaged!

Hey Agile aka Tony,

I saw your above comment on a post regarding fitting the limefighter. Can you please explain what the problem was that caused the damage, and what kind of damage was caused.

Do you know if this is likely to reoccur in another situation? Also, would this 'fault' cause any issues to a magnaclean?

any help, anyone??

You run it for several years alongside a similar installation which doesn't have one, then compare the two.

You may as well fit one on the fuel lines in your car too, supposed to make it do more MPG.

Exactly how hard, or exactly which area?

I don't think so.

What are your opinions on this?

It won't do much to the limescale.

Does it really work?

No.

Does anyone know how I can test to see if it is working for real?

Use one, then submit a sample of water for analysis.

 

[xpressbuyer2day]

hmm, that good huh

ok, i suppose i'll just try it and get a magnaclean too and pray that it does something.

Hard to tell

Hello oilman, keeping well I hope?

As a naughty hijack, may I ask if you would expect a 45Btu wood-fuelled Rayburn to be easily managed in providing reasonable heat for a 200l cylinder and 12 average sized rads in an 18th century house?

 

[oilman]

Previous reply applies. But in general, there are much better ways of extracting the heat from wood than a Rayburn.

I asked you too late for one customer, but for the next one who asks me, what do you recommend?

 

[xpressbuyer2day]

area is London. How do I tell how hard?

 

[heatingman]

london is a pretty generic term but you are probaly in the 280ppm for water hardness, so a scale prevention device is recommended.
I personally use the dosing type oppposed to magnetic. Dis-advantage is they do require replacement cartridges yearly
