The Worcester Greenstar System Filter
Modern condensing boilers are precision-engineered and
designed to run with a clean water heating system. Over
time, dirty system water will damage a boiler and its
components, causing failures and shortening the life of the
overall system.
Damaged boiler and system components
•
Blockages in primary heat exchanger
•
Increased wear on pumps
•
Blocked valves.
Reduced effi ciency
•
Energy effi ciency loss equivalent to a boiler being
reduced from A rated effi ciency to D rated, resulting
in fuel wastage
•
Blocked radiators can reduce effi ciency and
heating comfort.

Debris in the system blocks the
efficient flow of water around
the system, thus affecting the
radiator’s heat distribution.
How the Greenstar System Filter removes
debris from the system water.
A highly effective solution from the brand you can trust
The Worcester Greenstar System Filter has been specifi cally
designed to combat the damaging effects of system debris
and pollutants, allowing homeowners to protect their boiler
or heat pump for a fraction of its cost. The fi lter is suitable
for 22mm piped heating systems.
At the centre of this innovative design is a highly powerful
magnet that removes the magnetic debris (magnetite) that
is present in the heating system water. The central location
of the magnet ensures that magnetite is collected quickly
and retained, maximising the overall protection. Any
non-magnetic debris is caught by the twin-action cyclonic
trap, a proven technology that offers a capacity to collect
up to 200g of magnetite a year.
Installation
The fi lter can be installed almost anywhere in a heating
system, however to maximise the effectiveness, it should be
placed before the boiler and after the last radiator on the
return pipework.
The Greenstar System Filter has been extensively
tested in simulated systems, proving its effectiveness
in removing iron oxide, magnetite, limescale particles,
casting sand, welding debris, non-magnetic metal fl akes,
paint particles and other system pollutants.
