70 FINANCE & INSURANCE; HEATING, VENTILATION & SERVICES Altecnic announce the launch of the CALEFFI XS® magnetic filter
Altecnic have released a new under boiler magnetic filter, the CALEFFI XS®. The CALEFFI XS® is a compact and versatile magnetic filter that is designed to protect heating and cooling systems from the harmful effects of impurities. With a filtration system that uses a mesh filter, a neodymium magnet, and a collection chamber, the CALEFFI XS® helps to remove impurities from systems. The mesh filter captures large particles, such as dirt and sand, while the magnet attracts and traps metal particles. The collection chamber captures the heaviest particles, such as rust and scale. With the installer in mind, the CALEFFI XS® is easy to install and maintain. It can be installed underneath any type of boiler, and the transparent glass windows make it easy to see when the filter needs to be cleaned. The internal isolation valve also ensures that only water in the collection chamber is drained before cleaning the mesh, for quick and easy servicing. Gary Perry, Managing Director at Altecnic, commented: “With homes being stretched for space, creating solutions that are compact whilst still being able to effectively protect the system is important. The CALEFFI XS® provides a compact, versatile, and easy to install and maintain solution for installers and homeowners. It is the perfect choice for keeping domestic systems running smoothly and efficiently.”

OMNIE will be incorporating the advanced AL HEX aluminium diffuser technology on all its foiled underfloor heating systems, as standard, with immediate effect. The patented AL HEX foil, with its trademark hexagonal patten, increases the in-channel foiled surface area that is in contact with the warm water pipe. The result is greater heat output, faster heat transfer and a more even heat distribution across a floor area, plus it avoids the risk of damage due to heat ‘striping’. Striping is caused when heat in the warm water pipe doesn’t diffuse into the floor panel effectively and, instead, creates hot spots and hot lines on the floor surface finish. Prolonged exposure to striping can damage both the floor finish and the subfloor, particularly if the installer raises the temperature of the water to try and improve the diffusion. “AL HEX is a real step forward for underfloor heating particularly when the industry is moving away from gas boilers and towards renewable heat sources,” says Brendan Hourican, OMNIE’s Managing Director. “Because it is so efficient at transferring heat, AL HEX works very well with lower water temperatures. This means it improves the performance of the underfloor heating.”
