ADEY’s MagnaClean Industrial, is establishing a reputation as a powerful and totally reliable magnetic filtration unit. It’s tackling demanding industrial and commercial applications across commercial, industrial, health, leisure, educational and residential environments.

Just what the doctor ordered at Leeds Infirmary

Project: Leeds General Infirmary   Objective: Upgrade of existing hospital central heating and air handling within a large and dated complex to create a far more efficient, responsive and more easily maintained system.   Issues: Critically, ensuring optimum temperature and air handling control within hospital operating theatres and wards for patients and staff. Time-consuming and costly maintenance of existing system. Minimising disruption over multiple floors, throughout various departments and hospital buildings, the original parts of which were opened in 1869 by the Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VII. Scaling within the existing system causing inefficient and costly system performance.

Solution: An ongoing central heating system upgrade involving the installation of six MagnaClean Industrial magnetic filters across the entire hospital site.

Result: Immediate system improvement following installation to provide responsive temperature control. Crucially, maintenance was undertaken without the need for costly, disruptive and protracted remedial renovation work to replace the system.

Verdict: "The MagnaClean units have already been removing high levels of magnetite sludge from the system and this has totally negated the need for far more intrusive and costly maintenance. Based on what we’ve seen already, I’m confident about achieving the temperature levels required. The theatres are the biggest concern, but we’ve been fulfilling the requirements and the transformation in the system has been remarkable."

Central heating boost for social housing

Project: Cearns House, East Thames Group   Objective: To provide a more cost-effective means of servicing and maintaining, while at the same time extending the life of, central heating systems in varied social residential developments.   Issues: As the largest housing association operating in east London and Essex with more than 13,500 homes, East Thames, an RSL, (Registered Social Landlord) has to review maintenance and repair costs in all areas. Central heating system maintenance costs in all properties, particularly older buildings, escalate and require more time and money as the systems age. Replacement of entire systems including associated pipe work is not only extremely costly, but far more disruptive for residents.   Solution: Adoption of a preventative approach through the installation of MagnaClean Industrial to provide continuous, in-line, maintenance.   Result: Following initial tests, significant sludge deposits have been removed from the system creating improved performance without disruption and the need for system refurbishment. Future monitoring of the system, four times a year, is anticipated to demonstrate a reduction in breakdowns and subsequent call-outs.   Verdict: "We’re committed to providing best solutions and best value for all our residents and any initiatives that meet both of these requirements are well received. We’re pleased with the early results. Since the initial installation, three further filters have been installed at similar developments and East Thames Group will be incorporating the use of MagnaClean Industrial within our service maintenance contracts."   Keith Deane, East Thames Group

Cool solution for global UK aerospace company

"MagnaClean Industrial was installed within an established installation serving several hundred employees at a major aerospace plant in the Midlands. The cooling system had experienced regular failure over the years, but since the installation of MagnaClean Industrial, it's been brilliant. We haven't had a single issue.

Whether it's a heating system or a cooling system, the simplicity of this technology and the benefits it brings in terms of performance is catching on fast. I haven't seen anything else to match them and I've no hesitation in recommending them to the industry."

Top marks at Oakham School

"New boiler plant is being introduced on a rolling basis to an ageing central heating system dispersed across a large independent school site that accommodates 1,200 students, so we needed something reliable to protect the new equipment.

We trialled MagnaClean Industrial about two years ago and it worked so well that we’ve put in two more and have experienced no problems with any of the system heat exchangers to date. I’m confident it’s doing the job. It’s a well-designed product that’s built to last. We’ve proved it works, so we’ll be installing further units as the plant upgrade programme continues in the future."

Residential care home system transformed

"We had a lot of problems with sludge in the central heating system at our 26 bedroom care home which was causing cold spots and inefficiency. With between 50 – 60 radiators in the care home, we needed something more reliable.

Having fitted MagnaClean Industrial, I couldn’t believe how much sludge was removed in the first week. It was phenomenal. Now after 18 months, we’re still removing a pint of sludge from the system every month which shows the unit is doing its job and protecting the boiler. The system has been transformed. The cold spots have been eliminated, the radiators are hotter and it’s operating far more efficiently."

Divine solution at central London church

"We put two Industrial units to the test on a sizeable heating installation in a large church in Mayfair central London and have found it an excellent solution.

The pipework from the original system goes back 50 - 70 years and had been causing major problems requiring the installation of a new boiler every five to six years. We actually flushed the system three times before we got clean water, but the following day it had oxidised and was dirty.

With two MagnaClean Industrial units operating in conjunction with a water treatment system, there have been no problems. The water in the system is now clean and the boiler life time has been extended saving ongoing maintenance and replacement costs running into thousands of pounds."
