Nibco h-78714 Magnetic Boiler Filter 1 in Press 175 Psi

Product Description

The NIBCO h-78714 is a magnetic boiler filter designed to remove ferrous debris from closed-loop hydronic heating systems. Part of the Webstone 7071 Series, this filter uses magnetic attraction to capture iron and steel particles that circulate through boiler circuits, helping protect pumps, heat exchangers, and valves from abrasive wear. It connects via press fitting on 1-inch pipe and is rated for working pressures up to 175 psi and temperatures up to 250 degrees F. The plastic body keeps weight low and resists corrosion. Licensed plumbers and hydronic heating technicians are the primary installers for this type of component.

This filter is suited for residential and commercial hydronic heating applications where water, oil, or glycol-mix fluids circulate through a closed loop. It is typically installed on the return line near the boiler to intercept debris before it reaches the heat exchanger. The press-connection design speeds installation and reduces the need for solder or threaded fittings, making it a practical choice in retrofit and new-construction boiler rooms alike.

Key Features

• Magnetic filtration captures ferrous particles from hydronic system fluid
• 1-inch press connection for fast, flame-free installation
• Rated to 175 psi working pressure
• Rated to 250 degrees F for high-temperature hydronic systems
• Plastic body resists corrosion and reduces overall weight
• Compatible with water, oil, and glycol-mix heating fluids

Compatibility

Designed for use with water, oil, and glycol-mix fluids in residential or commercial closed-loop hydronic heating systems. Suitable for 1-inch press-connect piping installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified hydronic heating technician. Shut down the boiler and depressurize the system before cutting into any piping. Press-fit connections require a calibrated press tool and the correct jaw size for 1-inch fittings. Follow local mechanical codes and the manufacturer specification sheet for orientation and service-access clearance requirements.
