Sentinel - X800 Fast Acting Cleaner 1L, targeted central heating system cleaning inside an hour, restores system efficiency by targeting corrosion debris, ideal for hot and cold systems

Product Information

Scientific research and evidence support the effectiveness of the Sentinel – X800. It has been formulated using advanced technology that specifically targets and eliminates corrosion debris, prolonging the lifespan of your central heating system. Moreover, the Sentinel – X800 has obtained relevant certifications and endorsements, further enhancing its credibility. Customers have also praised the product for its remarkable performance and efficiency, leaving no doubt about its effectiveness. Features and Benefits Restores System Efficiency A constant flow of water kept on coming out of the radiator that is the closet to the drain valve which confuses me as no more water is coming out of the external and only drain valve If the deposits you are dealing with are proving to be particularly stubborn, not remedied by the application of the aforementioned cleaners, a more potent product may provide the solution. Sentinel Deposit Remover is a mildly acidic formula designed to dissolve obstinate magnetite and scale deposits. I'm not sure if I should be draining it out tonight, (as I had planned), as that is 24hrs rather than the single hour they 'quote', or if leaving it in longer is beneficial? Why?A build-up of magnetite sludge and corrosion debris can cause cold spots in radiators and uneven heat distribution. Cleaning an old system before8 installing a new component such as a boiler or circulation pump prolongs the effective life of the new component reducing maintenance and replacement costs.

Recommended dosage: 1 litre of X800 is sufficient to treat a typical domestic system of up to 10 radiators. For maximum performance circulate from 1-24 hours.X800 is non-aggressive and can be left in the system over 24 hours, however this may cause debris to re-settle reducing effectiveness.Sentinel's range of filters is crafted to fit any situation. The filters we offerrange from ultra-compact, where space is at a premium, through the compact Vortex300 and the larger Vortex500, which is also suitable for heat pump installations. If a sealed system (combi, or non-combi but with no F&E tank but with an expansion vessel either inside the boiler or external to it) you will need to add the chemical another way. Often a tall towel type radiator will do. Turn off the boiler. Bleed water from a radiator bleed point until the boiler pressure drops to zero. Take the whole bleed plug (not just the square headed bleed screw) out of the top of the radiator, syphon out 1.5 litres of water and replace with the chemical. Replace the plug, top up the system water to normal boiler pressure (say 1.3 bar if you don't know what that is). Run the system as above. You will still have to do a full drain down and repeat a few times as above. If you don't have a suitable towel type radiator you can get the chemicals in various "easy add" versions. I've never found these easy to use. What next? Add Sentinel X100 inhibitor, to prevent corrosion and the build-up of limescale, the main causes of central heating and boiler inefficiency. Sometimes a more general clean is required, aimed at removing iron oxide and limescale deposits from pipework, heat exchangers and radiators. X800 Fast Acting Cleaner is ideal for these purposes, designed for use in conjunction with powerflushing equipment, but also proving a highly effective cleaner when manually flushed, too. It is effective both hot and cold. When might I need Deposit Remover? The circulation pump of the system can be used to circulate the cleaning solution; however equipment which provides a more rapid circulation can provide a more effective clean. When using an external cleaning rig, the product can be dosed directly to the buffer tank of the rig (follow equipment manufacturer’s instructions).

Apply to: Restore circulation and effectiveness in systems older than six months that have a significant amount of corrosion debris causing poor circulation and cold spots. Prepare for the installation of new components.The Sentinel – X800 is a must-have for anyone with a central heating system. Whether you are a homeowner, a property manager, or a business owner, this product will revolutionize the way you maintain your heating system. By ensuring the optimal performance and efficiency of your central heating system, the Sentinel – X800 provides comfort and peace of mind to everyone who relies on it for warmth. Pros and Cons How does it work? Acts as an emulsifier for oils and greases and a dispersant to lift and suspend particulate debris. Holds contamination in suspension ready for flushing. After cleaning, the system should be drained and flushed until the water runs clear. On refilling, the system should be treated with Sentinel X100 Inhibitor or Sentinel X500 Inhibited Antifreeze. A few examples of the kind of debris that can be found in new systems include copper swarf, flux residues, casting sands and rust. Other contaminants can include greases and stamping oils used in the manufacturing process, sometimes applied excessively. When introduced into a central heating system, these materials can cause problems such as corrosion.

Customers who have used the Sentinel – X800 are thrilled with the results. Many have praised its fast-acting formula, highlighting the noticeable improvement in system efficiency after using the product. Others appreciate its versatility, as it can be used in both hot and cold systems. Overall, customers highly recommend the Sentinel – X800 for anyone looking to maintain the peak performance of their central heating systems. Overall Value I then opened all of the thermostatic valves on all 7 radiators, turned on the boiler by the mains and turned the temperature up to 25 degrees by the thermostat To achieve the best results, it is advisable to solely use the Sentinel – X800 for cleaning your central heating system. Mixing it with other cleaning products may affect its effectiveness.Ideally, on the return pipe leading to a boiler. This is to stop debris entering the boiler and damaging it. Where systems are badly fouled, we recommend a longer circulation period (approximately 3-4 weeks). The product is not aggressive and can be safely left in the system for extended periods. I read online that I should have open the bleed valves a bit whilst draining the system. So with this new information I started bleeding the radiators downstairs starting with the one closet to the boiler, which caused more water to come out of the drain valve
