What Is Powerflushing?
Powerflushing is a cleansing process that removes sludge, rust, and other debris from your central heating system. Using high-velocity water and cleaning chemicals, we flush out the contaminants that build up in your pipes, radiators, and boiler over time.
This process is carried out using specialist powerflushing equipment that's connected to your heating system. The equipment circulates cleaning solution at high velocity through your radiators and pipework, dislodging and removing the accumulated deposits that restrict water flow and reduce heating efficiency.
Signs Your System Needs Powerflushing
Several symptoms indicate that your central heating system would benefit from a powerflush. Cold spots on radiators, particularly at the bottom, suggest sludge accumulation. If some radiators heat up while others remain cold, or if they take a long time to warm up, this indicates restricted circulation.
Noisy boilers or radiators, discoloured water when you bleed your radiators, and frequent pressure loss can all be signs of system contamination. If your boiler is frequently breaking down or your heating bills have increased without explanation, sludge build-up may be affecting your system's efficiency.
With 20 years of self-employed experience, we can quickly assess whether your heating system would benefit from powerflushing and recommend the best course of action.
Benefits of Powerflushing
A thorough powerflush delivers numerous benefits for your heating system and your home. The immediate result is improved heating efficiency, with radiators heating up faster and more evenly across your property.
By removing corrosive deposits, powerflushing extends the life of your boiler and reduces the likelihood of breakdowns. Your boiler won't need to work as hard to heat your home, which can reduce your energy bills and lower your carbon footprint.
If you're installing a new boiler, we strongly recommend powerflushing your existing system first. Most boiler manufacturers require a clean system for warranty purposes, and installing a new boiler into a contaminated system can lead to premature failure.
Our Powerflushing Process
We begin by assessing your heating system to determine the extent of contamination and the best approach for your property. During the powerflush, we work methodically through each radiator, ensuring every part of your system is thoroughly cleaned.
We add corrosion inhibitor to your system afterwards, which helps prevent future sludge build-up and protects your heating components. Throughout the process, we take care to protect your property and work cleanly and efficiently.
