Isolate magnetic cleanser at the valves- drain the contents- add inhibitor to it- reseal magnetic cleaner- open valves- bleed magnetic cleaner

On a combi boiler with magna clean you only have to isolate the filter, clean the magnet and fill with inhibitor. Close the filter, open the valves and run the boiler.
