The World’s First Magnetic Filter

Chris Adey pioneered the way, calling on his experience as a former British Gas engineer. 

Using all he knew about the daily demands on central heating systems and heating engineers, in 2003, Chris invented the very first magnetic filter - The MagnaClean®. Today, there are over 10 million MagnaClean filters fitted worldwide.

Innovation grown in a garden shed 

This paved the way for transforming best practice in the central heating industry, and ADEY has since pioneered an entirely new technology for the sector – magnetic filtration. The development of ADEY’s first MagnaClean filter in 2003 established a new industry standard, transforming heating system maintenance. MagnaClean became a specified installation requirement throughout utilities, local authorities, housing and maintenance sectors.

What makes ADEY stand out is our approach to the successful introduction of unique, patented products and services, and the creation of a totally new approach to boiler maintenance.

Radiator sludge is the leading cause of boiler breakdowns

There are over 21.5 million boilers in the UK. 15% of boilers breakdown annually, and 60% of these are due to sludge. Boiler breakdowns cost the UK over £700 million per year in unexpected bills*.
