Subject: Re: Fernox
hi Folks,
The one I have used is Fernox DS3 which is specifically formulated for descaling equipment, rather than treating whole central haeting systems which is what DS40 is intended for.
The active ingredent in DS3 is Sulphamic Acid. Yes I said Sulphamic not Sulphuric. It's an organic acid - hopefully someone in the chemical industry will explain what it is. I also have some descaler called "'Kilrock" . This is Formic acid and seems all together nastier.
Therefore I recommend sticking to DS3.
Cheers
