FERNOX

WHY USE A FERNOX INHIBITOR?

Chemical Protectors and inhibitors give long-term protection to central heating systems against internal corrosion and scale

formation.

The Fernox Protector inhibitor range prevents corrosion occurring in central heating systems...

To avoid system breakdown and inefﬁciencies caused by sludge, dirt and debris by providing long lasting protection

against corrosion and scale in mixed metal central heating systems

To save energy. For domestic systems, results show that Fernox Protector F1 when used in conjunction with Fernox

Cleaner F3, gas savings of up to 15% can be achieved every time a room is heated up.

To avoid the build-up of gas which can result in the frequent need to vent radiators

To prevent sticking pumps and boiler noise caused by corrosion

To prevent cold spots in radiators by avoiding gas and magnetite build-up

All Fernox Protector/inhibitor products are non-toxic and environmentally friendly formulation

Cathodic inhibitors

Metals in the water react with water and

form deposits on the cathode metal surface.

Anodic inhibitors

React with metal ions on the anode and create

an insoluble and protective ﬁlm e.g. nitrates and

molybdates.

Organic inhibitors

Adsorb onto metal surfaces and provide a

hydrophobic, protective ﬁlm over the metal.

Fernox inhibitors are suitable for all types of boilers, radiators and pipework systems and are compatible

with all materials in a heating system. There is no risk of damage to the system by exceeding the recommended dose but

full protection can be compromised if the system is under dosed.
