3.1. Preparation and Dosing

Before applying Fernox F1 Protector, ensure the central heating system is clean. For optimal results, it is recommended to clean the system with a suitable cleaner, such as Fernox F3 Cleaner, and then flush thoroughly. One 500 ml bottle of Fernox F1 is sufficient to treat a typical domestic central heating system (up to 130 liters or 16 radiators).

Dosing Methods:

1. Open Vented Systems: Add Fernox F1 via the header tank.
2. Sealed Systems:
   • Add via a radiator using a Fernox Injector.
   • Add via the filling loop using a suitable adapter.
3. New Systems: For new installations, add Fernox F1 after the initial flush and fill.

After adding the product, circulate the system for at least one hour to ensure even distribution.

3.2. Operarea sistemului

Once Fernox F1 Protector is introduced, it continuously works within the system water to inhibit corrosion and prevent limescale deposition. The product remains active, providing ongoing protection as long as it is present in the system. Regular operation of the heating system will ensure the protector circulates effectively.

3.3. Maintenance and Re-dosing

For continued protection, it is recommended to check the concentration of Fernox F1 Protector annually using a Fernox Protector Test Kit. Re-dose the system every five years, or sooner if the system water is drained or partially drained for maintenance. Always ensure the system is clean before re-dosing.

4. Depanare

If you experience issues with your central heating system after applying Fernox F1 Protector, consider the following:

• Persistent Cold Spots or Radiator Venting: This may indicate insufficient cleaning prior to dosing, or a need for re-dosing if the product has been diluted or depleted over time. Ensure the system is thoroughly flushed and re-dosed if necessary.
• System Noise: Excessive noise can sometimes be related to air in the system or pump issues. Ensure all radiators are bled and the system pressure is correct.
• Eficiență redusă: If the system's efficiency seems to decline, check the Fernox F1 concentration and consider a full system clean and re-dose.

For complex issues, consult a qualified heating engineer.
