Keep your heating or cooling system clean and efficient with dirt separation

Did you know that the water in your heating or cooling system  can become contaminated? This contamination, such as rust particles and other debris, can lead to problems such as:

  • Clogging of thermostatic valves
  • Blockages in pipes
  • Accelerated wear of system components
  • Reduced efficiency of your system
  • Higher energy costs

How does this pollution occur?

Not only can dirt (dust, sand) enter the system before or during installation, but undesirable effects such as corrosion (rusting) can also occur afterwards. Rust particles in the system water are almost inevitable and, if not removed continuously and effectively, can lead to the problems mentioned above.

Recognize dirt in your installation: pay attention to black water

Do you notice that the water from your heating system is black when you drain it? That's not a good sign. Black water often indicates magnetite: a rusty precipitate that is caused by corrosion (rust) in your installation. This dirt can damage pumps and valves and causes less efficiency and comfort.

The sooner you recognise this, the better you prevent bigger problems. So do you see black water? Time to take dirt separation seriously!

A clean system is an efficient system: our dirt separators protect your installation from contamination and increase performance.

How do you remove even the smallest particles from your installation?

Many systems use filters to remove dirt, but this is usually not the ideal solution. Filters quickly become clogged, need to be cleaned or replaced regularly, and therefore incur additional (labour) costs.

Modern installations are becoming more and more compact, as is the amount of system water. As a result, even the smallest amount of dirt has a negative effect on the performance and efficiency of the entire system.

The ideal place for a dirt separator in your system

To optimally protect your heating or cooling system, the correct placement of a dirt separator is essential. A dirt separator is preferably installed at the point where the system water enters the heating or cooling unit, usually in the return line.

Why on the return line?

  • Here, the water flows back to the (sensitive) system components, such as pumps, heat exchangers and valves.
  • Trapping debris at this point will prevent it from causing damage to these crucial parts.
  • This not only improves the performance and lifespan of your system, but also reduces the risk of breakdowns and maintenance costs.

With a strategically placed dirt separator from Spirotech, your system stays clean, efficient and protected from contamination, even under the most demanding conditions. This way you ensure a problem-free and durable system.
