Any Idea What This Is?
19 Answers
As I don’t know how to post pictures, this is going to be difficult, but here goes, and bear with me! Our neighbour has discovered a ‘device’ on the floor of her garage and has asked me what is. She has no idea how it got there.
To start with, think of one of those plastic bottles that you squeeze and the liquid is pushed up into a space to allow you to administer a dose of something. (I have one for applying a neutraliser to tap water before topping up the pond.) In terms of shape, think of two clear After Eight mint boxes connected together with a gap down the middle. At the top of one is a screw top filler cap and the other what looks like a plastic nut and rubber washer. At the bottom of one of the ‘boxes’ are two electrical tabs to allow for wires to be fitted with spade connectors. When my neighbour found the ‘device’, it was filled with dirty water she thinks.
Over to you! (I wondered about car or central heating boiler-related.)

Can you take a picture and get it onto your computer? (It's probably easier from there than from a phone).
If so, showing us a picture is an absolute doddle. You simply need to go here http://

Obviously these are industrial deionisers but may be yours is a smaller domestic garage version.

Looks like an old (1970s) aquarium filter, to me, this being a modern version:

Hmm! I've found a part number - 5110277 - and, bizarrely, a clutch master system comes up on an internet search, but then so do many others! Here's another picture which I hope shows some of the innards.

I was going to suggest some sort of water softener, with domestic heating being what I was concentrating on. However Z-M's post makes me think that it might be for some other situation where water 'purification' is required.
(I'm pleased that you made sense of my instructions for uploading images anyway - even if it has only resulted in us all being somewhat baffled!)
