After 9 days of boiler-less-ness, I’ve come home this evening to a brand new boiler and this on a pipe:

It’s a TF1 Omega Filter.

According to Mr Central Heating (.co.uk) it is a magnetic boiler filter. It removes metal bits and radiator sludge.

Damn ugly, though.

Strikes me as something you’d put in a cupboard, not a hallway.

I shouldn’t complain.

I HAVE HEATING!!

Better yet…

I HAVE HOT WATER!!

I assume. I haven’t worked out how to put that on yet ’cause I’ve been distracted by that thing on the pipe.
