November 28, 20205 yr Anyone know of these? Asking for someone on another forum. Apparently leaking around the black cap on top which I take to be the magnet: Pretty sure on my IntaKlean2 you can remove the magnet without causing a leak like this. Maybe an O ring gone?
November 28, 20205 yr Quick search and they do leak - set of o rings for it aren’t expensive https://www.heating-parts.co.uk/Grant-O-ring-kit-MagOne-Filter-VM12-X/product/239060/239060/

November 29, 20205 yr Don’t forget silicone grease on the new seals and a smear into the valleys of the threads of the lid so it screws on / off easily, eg with little torque.

I can't have put enough silicone grease on the lid threads on my IntaKlean2. Was easy to get on and off to start with but now not so much. Maybe easier when cool?

December 7, 20205 yr Author Problem found. The casing round the magnet has disintegrated. Thermal trauma from an overheat / kettling occurrence or something in the water?
