Leak Sealer F4 500ml

Code:

62097

Leak Sealer F4 is a internal leak sealer developed for use throughout a central heating system to seal small, inaccessible leaks and weeps which may cause pressure loss and boiler breakdown. Once dispersed within the system, the product finds the area of oxygen ingress and forms a polymer to seal the pinhole. Effective within 1-24 hours after application, the unique sealing efficiency of this market-leading water treatment chemical has been proven to prevent blockages or restrictions within the boiler or vulnerable system components such as pumps and safety devices. A leak can be quickly and efficiently sealed, without the need for a complete system drain down.

Ideal for reducing pressure loss from sealed systems
Seeks out and seals inaccessible, internal microscopic leaks fast
Saves time and money on draining down and repairing
Safe to use – does not cause blockages in pipework or vulnerable boiler components such as pumps, air vents and heat exchangers
Left permanently in the system – compatible with all metals and materials, including aluminium
One 500ml recyclable bottle treats up to 130 litres of system water (16 radiators) and the equivalent of 250m2 of underfloor systems.

Application

The recommended ‘in use’ concentration of the product is 0.385%. One single dose of this product treats a larger sized property with a heating system of 130 litres, up to 16 radiators or 250 sqm of underfloor heating. For open vented systems add via the feed and expansion tank. For sealed systems add via a suitable dosing point (e.g. a towel rail or an in-line system filter). Alternatively, use a suitable dosing vessel to inject the product into the system. In single feed indirect cylinders, e.g. ‘Primatic’ or similar, potable water chemicals must be used.
