It has always bothered me that the magnetic filter which came with the boiler was uninsulated and no manufactures insulated jacket was available, so I decided to make one in order to reduce wasted heat as the filter is next to the boiler in the garage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction was very simple, I bought 11.94cm foam ring circles for crafts from Temu (24 for \u00a34.75), and glued them together with coving adhesive<\/a>, making the top and bottom sections, (13 rings in total), the ends were filled in with an offcut of polystyrene found at the local tip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each section then had half of the filter connection cut out using a ‘hot wire’ to match the pattern below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the two halves fit over the filter, the next part is to fasten them together, bearing in mind they will need separating for serving, for this I used 10mm x 2mm Neodymium disc magnets recessed into the foam, two on the lower half and two on the top, all covered in aluminum foil tape. The inside of the rings was also lined with this foil in an attempt to reduce heat loss further.<\/p>\n\n\n

Once constructed I used ‘Foam Armour’ to strengthen the foam and painted the outside with Black Acrylic paint.<\/p>\n\n\n
