Re: Question about glycol
Thanks @hot_rod As usual, you are still teaching me LOLBrad White had a clever analogy on glycol back about 18 years ago here on HH.
@retiredguy Thats a great point. I am just concerned I will get that call on a Friday afternoon telling me there's water everywhere. Thanks

Re: is a magnetic boiler filter necessary?
You will be amazed how much "stuff" a magnetic separator pulls out. In addition to the dirt removal, the micro sized particles too small to filter out.
If you have, or ever add an ECM style circulator, it is critical to have a mag separator.
We installed a mag sep on our system in Milwaukee after 10 years of operation, these yellow bins show the result of the first flush.
It is another component to assure you system runs clean, and efficiently. Not unlike an oil filter and magnetic drain plug on a truck engine

Evaporates where?
(and as an aside, all the interior surfaces of the main are wet during the firing cycle and probably much later too--all the interior surfaces are condensing steam all the time)
