Ok - what is a power flush?

Power flushing or radiator powerflushing is a process where central heating systems are cleaned of sludge, rust and dirt by flushing them with water containing cleaning chemicals. A power flush machine and filter is attached to your central heating system. The water is then flushed through cleaning the inside of the pipes and radiators. the system contains fresh clean water.

Why would I want a power flush?

Over time your central heating system will accumulate limescale, dirt, corrosion and rusting. This comes from the inside of the radiators, pipes and boiler. Powerflusihing removes this build up from the system. It increases the efficiency of the system (by upto 25%), thereby reducing your fuel bills. It prolongs the life of the boiler by taking the strain off the pump. It reduces noise and eradicates dead spots or cold spots in your radiators.

How do I know if I need a power flush? Power flushing might be appropriate if you have one or more of the following: A new boiler installation (as part of the guarantee) If your hot water system is slow to heat up If your radiators need frequent bleeding If you have excessive boiler noise If some radiators are partially or even completely cold If your radiators are blocked

When might I not need a power flush?

Sometimes, you might just need a chemical cleanse. If you have an old central heating system it's not always be a good idea to push high pressure water through it. It can cause leaks to form at the joints in the pipes. This can be disastrous if those pipes are under the floorboards! All is not lost however, a chemical clean is another option. This is where chemical cleaners are placed into the system and the water system itself is used to create the pressure to push the chemicals through. The entire central heating system is drained. Individual radiators that are still blocked can be removed and cleaned individually.

Don't panic! You don't need to know which method is best for your system. Our trained engineers will provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision.
