Power Flushing is the most effective technique for cleaning a central heating system by pushing fresh water at high velocity thorough the central heating system but at low pressure so as not to damage the system. This removes sludge, debris, limescale, Iron Oxides and corrosion deposits. This is made even more effective with the additional use of powerful cleansing agents. (You would not wash your dishes with just water!)

Does my Central Heating System need Powerflushing?

• Do your have radiators have cold spots?
• Are you always having to bleed your radiators?
• Are your radiator valves leaking or stiff?
• Is your boiler making strange noises?
• Is your Pump frequently breaking down?

If the answer is yes, then you should consider a Power Flush

What are the Benefits of Power Flushing?

• Radiator Valves are cleared. Water will circulate freely into the Radiator and then Radiator Valves will work as intended.

• Pumps will no longer seize or fail. Abrasive and Magnetic Black Oxide will no longer wear the bearings in the pump and stop them from sticking or failing.(unless prolonged damage has damaged your pump)

• Black sludge will be removed from the radiators. This will eradicate "Cold Spots".

• Eliminates Hydrogen and Air building up in the radiators. Hydrogen Gas is a by-product of corrosion and is flammable and is Potentially dangerous.

• Black Sludge will be removed from the underfloor pipework. This will increase the flow and reduce the chance of blockages.

• Removes Limescale and Iron Oxides which damages boilers, creates boiler noises, reduces efficiency, increases emissions and leaves people with cheaper fuel bills.

The Benchmark Scheme

The Benchmark Scheme was set up as a guideline for installers to improve the quality of the installation of heating and hot water systems. In accordance with the Benchmark Scheme and BS:7593 all central heating systems should be cleansed(powerflushed) before the new appliance is commissioned. The reason for this is not only will a central heating system have existing debris and sludge in it, but it will also have excess flux, swarf and grease and oil used to prevent the rusting of componants before the appliance is used.

With the compactness and high efficiency of modern boilers designed to minimise fuel usage and emissions makes them more susceptible to damage and faults caused by debris in the central heating systems water. Therefore when having a new boiler installed it is important to have a powerflush.
