Magnaclean pipe size query

    Hi,

    I have a ten year old oil fired boiler with a bit of sludge in the system. I'm thinking of changing to a condensor boiler in a year or so as part of a system redesign and in the meantime I'd like to fit a Magnaclean to remove as much of the sludge as I can.

    The query that I have is that it looks like I have 1" copper pipe for flow and return to the boiler. The Magnaclean literature mentions 22mm connections. Am I being too literal in my pipe measurements or will I need to use some sort of adaptor?

    The system should be flushed before the new boiler is fitted, a magna clean fitted beforehand is no substitute but a good preventative measure going forward
