What colour should my CH water be?
I drained a rad into a demijohn at the weekend, someone's already commented
on how good my home-brew looks! It's the colour of black tea, but not cloudy at all. Is this correct? Or should it be clearer? A few small hard black lumps also came out. I replaced all but two of the rads 18 months ago, the system wasn't flushed but was drained down completely. Quality (Sentinel X100) inhibitor added. Should I run some X400 through it? Thanks P |

Builders' tea would do it :-) Had a look in the F&E tank last night, there was a brown scum floating on the water. I cleaned it all out but if it comes back I'll run some sludge remover through. |

This can be a fungal growth. If serious get on to Fernox who do some "fungicidal hoochermejiga" sort of stuff that goes in the header tank to cure it. Phil |
