Answer

Thank you for your enquiry - Please find product page link for the Fernox MB-1 Inhibitor

and also page link for the F1 Inhibitor

Basically no difference, the original MB1 which was normally added to the Feed and Expansion Tank
was a 4 litre container that Fernox first launched and a few years later came the range of concentrates
meaning that they were able to supply a product RANGE that was equal to the original but in a 1/2 litre bottle. Vat is included and delivery which is via UPS couriers cost £4.50.
