Has anyone heard or had experience of Oxyvent in Ireland?
The founder got a silver medal at the International Exhibition of
Inventions in Geneva for this invention.
They went into production in 2002 but as far as I know only have
installations in Ireland at present.
For underfloor heating, the device instantly balances the system ,
i.e. the water enters the floor at almost the same temperature as the
floor and increases gradually, the water is allowed to move freely and
quickly through the floors due to the fact that the air has been
removed and the flow rate increased by 66%. Because the air is
removed, if you have the narrow plastic pipe system for underfloor
heating this solves the problem of any clogging up occurring.

This is spam right?

Ok, just in case it's not . . . .

Extravagant claims from mystical patented technology, walk away right
now!

I'd agree with that.

I wouldn't - much of it is his usual bigoted unsupported claptrap.
Unfortunately, as with much of his ramblings, he has blended a
superficial knowledge of the subject with abysmal ignorance and a
marginal understanding of language. The result is well up to his
usual standard of incomprehensibility.

Only on Wednesdays and Fridays of intermittent months :-). The
comment referred of course to the resident oiks replies to you.

I find IMM the most informative on this group on heating and water
systems. I have saved many of his postings over the last few years. I
particularly like the suggestion of using a combi for the power
showers and a low pressure 50-50 split combi cylinder for the
remainder of the hot water. I was considering using a either an
unvented cylinder or thermal store to eliminate a cold tank in
refurbishing my mothers 1969 heating system. The combi boiler and
combi cylinder, which is only the size of a thermal store or unvented
cylinder, is an excellent cheap easy way which eliminates a separate
cold tank in the loft. I am pricing the parts up and so far it is the
cheapest option and provides the same as the unvented cylinder and a
thermal store.

If you have a personal grudge then please keep it off line.

It appears a large manifold and air separator. Having won the award I would
take the device seriously, as it indicates that people have tested it and it
does roughly what they say it does. I hope they tested it! Was this a
recognised and respected organisation that gave the award? Are there any
independent tests though? I assume the box is available on the Continent
being made in Holland. The claims of 50% less fuel used appear wild, so
independent tests are required.

Briefly looking at the web site I fail to see how this box does what they
say. I separates air as it is a large air separator, but the rest?

If it does what they say, this device could be incorporated inside a boiler
casing.

Sceptical.
