Hot oils degrade by thermal cracking and oxidation. The two by-products of oil degradation is sludge and coke due to carbon build-up. These products can collect through-out your system but specifically in pump seals and internals, valves, etc. that result in equipment problems and possibly eventual system breakdown. The continuous contaminant build-up without proper filtration can also be detrimental to heating surfaces of your system, thereby reducing heat transfer efficiency.
The other important factor to consider is additional cost entailed from more rapid hot oil breakdown. This can include not only increased hot oil replacement but higher labor man-hours due to increase maintenance and repair time and the cost of replacement parts such as seals, valves, rotors, and mag-drive canisters thereby costs can quickly become considerable.
