Just struck me mine hasn't been changed in probably 2.5 years... got some interesting looking sheets of slime in there and probably legionnaires disease and all sorts.
Presumably I should dump in some Chlorine tablets? Or do they react with copper?
-
I change mine continuously. It runs off the mains.

Getting into the biological warfare game now Tony?

I'm the only one with a sufficient immune system to survive a visit to the shed. That and my shed hedgehog, who I see has been out again this winter in the clement weather.

Definitely throw some chlorine tablets or bleach in there and run it through the pipework, then dump it, flush it and refill. Best do it before the Yanks bomb your shed.
-
as above, bleach (chlorine) will be way cheaper than (chlorine) tablets.
-
Dont they put salt in swimming pools? Might help to take a layer of slime off the inside of the pipework, and keep the water fresh. Dunno how much you would put in though.

How wasteful, obviously not on a meter then ! ;D

You should sink your own borehole for condenser water :)

Nope, and I'll stop "wasting" it when the water company improves it's ridiculous leak rate and reduces the obscene profits it makes.
Just imagine if the gas mains leaked at the same rate.

Mine has been in a year now.... I added bleach back in the summer when I noticed all the mosquito larvae wiggling about in it.
-
I change mine every year, when I have a bath.
-
I dont use one - and the water I use for washing comes from the mains (like the other Julian, I am not on a meter)
-
Little admission here! I rarely demeth my fuel prior to water washing, but when I have done, I thought that it had to have a continuous flow(slowed with a ball valve). I've even connected the water once, so that it went through the condenser and then through the water mister to wash the previous batch :-[
