Over
a period of 12 months ending April 2001, Advantica* carried out a series
of independent tests on Corrosion Master at its world renowned research
centre in Loughborough UK. The test objectives were as follows:
-
to test the effectiveness of Corrosion Master in reducing dissolved
oxygen levels in a wet central heating system.
- to
evaluate the corrosion protection qualities with mixed metals typically
found in wet central heating systems.
