How does the dirt get into the heating system in the first place?

Central heating systems accumulate limescale, dirt, corrosion and rusting over time. The dirt comes from the inside of the radiators, pipes and boiler itself. Power flushing removes this build up from the system, thereby increasing the efficiency of the system by up to 25% and reducing your fuel bills.

When should I get a power flush?

• If you've had a new boiler installed (as part of the guarantee)
• If your hot water system is slow to heat up
• If your radiators need frequent bleeding
• If your boiler is excessively noisy
• If some radiators are partially or completely cold or blocked

Chemical cleaning your central heating system

If you have an old central heating system, it's not always a good idea to have a power flush. Pushing high pressure water through and old system can spring leaks at the joints in old pipes. So, for old systems, a chemical clean is often the better option. Chemical detergents are placed into the water and the system itself is used to create enough 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.

Chemical clean or a power flush?

Don't worry about it. We'll advise you on what is best for your system. Of course, we'll need to visit the property to make the corrrect assessment. But rest assured that our trained plumbers will provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision.

We pride ourselves on our open and honest pricing - there are no hidden charges and we even charge in 15 minute intervals after the first hour.
