Coolant Filters
John thanks, I was thinking of one inch or what ever size makes the
loop to the potable waterheater. blockage there is of little issue
and no hot water at the sink would warn of a clogged filter. I like
the idea of the filter being in a path like the waterheater because
it is right off the pump and as the filter fills with crap, it
catches smaller and smaller particles. placed in a spot where the
path around is less restrictive will prove to become the path of
least resistance ans the filter become only moderatly full.

The other advantage of a coolant filter is you can get them
charged with additives (RobR a Canadian, but ok)
