Hello
I had exactly the same problem once. The tubes showed brown. It also happened twice that a heating circuit was clogged. Iron crystals had settled there. It was about 10 years after the heating system was built. I then discussed all possibilities with the installer. Insert a magnet with a filter. He said, that works but: somewhere the rust comes from. And that is usually the expansion vessel. High-quality pipes and the cheapest junk for the vessel. Stainless steel would be appropriate there. And even if a magnet and filter are installed, and the water renewed, the cause would continue to rust until the damage gives way, and then it’s really bad. First clarify the cause. As I said, usually the expansion vessel. I didn’t pursue the matter further because I sold the apartment.
