Default What volume is my sealed CH system?

I'm currently flushing out my CH system (as I write, trying to dislodge
airlocks...! :-( ) and hopefully will be in a position to add some
new inhibitor.

I'm wondering how much I need to add, in that I haven't a clue what the
internal volume of my (sealed) system is. I have 15 rads/towel rails
of varying sizes (with mixture of 22/15/10 mm pipework if that makes any
difference) .

Any ideas as to a ballpark figure? As I'm adding Sentinel X100,
which needs 1 bottle per 100 litres, I'm asking should I be adding
one bottle or three?

50-100 litres, prolly

basically whatever the volume - one bottle is magically about right


Maxie, 1%. If you over-dose you make perish the rubber parts of the
system.
