How much CH inhibitor?

[olimain]

Got to fix a leaking pipe at my parents house so draining down the system. They've already had one blow off this winter and this one looks like it's close so I want to sort it out before it does!

As I'm draining down fully, roughly how much inhibitor should I be adding when refilling? It's a 5bed 4 bath new build, approx 14 rads & 3 towel rads. I was planning on 2 x 1L of Sentinel.

Thanks

You will be well covered using 2 litres of X100

I seem to recall it gave guide lines of a bottle per 10 rads!?

Any CAST Iron radiators on the system ?

IF so, please only use Fernox F1

Thanks, no nothing cast, house is only about 15 years old.

Can't overdose. You'll be fine.

Depends on water volume, if flat panel rads and 15mm pipe work, 1.5ltrs or 2 ltr is fine. No real problems with overdosing by 1/2ltr.

Thank you-the rads are all doubles so it sounds as though I should be fine with 2L
