Powerflushing
Improve both the lifespan and performance of your central heating system with a power flushing service. It is important that you have your central heating system cleaned every few years to stop sludge and debris accumulating in the system. Obstructions in central heating systems account for over 80% of issues with central heating systems.
What Is Power Flushing?
Power Flushing is a method used to increase the running efficiency of a central heating system. It cleans out the heating system and flushes out unwanted corrosion and debris. This effective process is done by pumping water at high pressure throughout the system which circulates and loosens debris in radiators and pipes. This is then flushed out of the system. Power flushing cleans an entire heating system. It is sometimes known as jet flushing.
Why Is Power Flushing Important?
Over time your heating system builds up ‘sludge’ in the system due to corrosion and substances in the water. Older heating systems really benefit from power flushing, as it makes them more efficient. It can also be beneficial to use on brand new systems as it can clear out any unwanted debris in radiators and pipes from manufacturing and installation.
Signs Your Central Heating Needs Power Flushing
Noisy Boiler & Radiators
This is caused by the build up of sludge & debris in the radiator. A power flush will clear this out.
Radiator Has Cold Spots
The debris and sludge in the radiator prevents the hot water from circulating properly, leading to cold spots in the radiator. A power flush will remove the debris and sludge, allowing the hot water to circulate around the radiator.
Boiler Making A Knocking Noise
The boiler is struggling to circulate hot water around the central heating system. This is because the radiators are full of debris and sludge. This can lead to a boiler breakdown. A power flush will clear out these blockages and resolve the issue.
Heating Is Slow To Warm Up
It takes longer for hot water to circulate through the central heating and radiators due to the build up of sludge and debris. A power flush of the system will fix this problem.
House Isn’t Warming Up Enough
If your home isn’t as warm as it should be it may be down to a build up of debris and sludge in your radiators. This prevents hot water from being pumped around the radiator and central heating system correctly. A power flush will clear out the system and allow the hot water to circulate properly.
