Frequently Asked Questions

What is powerflushing and how does it work?
Powerflushing is a cleaning process for central heating systems. It uses specialist equipment to circulate cleaning chemicals and water at high speed through your radiators and pipes. This removes sludge, rust and debris that can cause blockages and cold spots.
Common signs include cold spots on radiators, noisy pipes or boiler, slow heating and discoloured water when you bleed the radiators. If you notice any of these, it may be time for a powerflush.
A typical powerflush usually takes between 4 to 8 hours, depending on the size of your heating system and how much debris has built up.
Powerflushing resolves issues caused by sludge and blockages. However, if your system has faulty components or leaks, further repairs may be needed. Our engineers will advise you if any additional work is required.
Yes, when carried out by qualified professionals like our team, powerflushing is completely safe. We use equipment and chemicals approved by boiler manufacturers.
Most systems benefit from powerflushing every 5 to 7 years, or when you notice signs of sludge build-up. New boiler installations may also require a powerflush to maintain the warranty.
Yes, a clean heating system runs more efficiently, which can lower your energy consumption and reduce heating bills.
