FAQs

How do I know if my system needs powerflushing?

Common signs include cold spots on radiators, slow heating up times, noisy boiler operation, frequent boiler breakdowns, or discoloured water when bleeding radiators. If your heating bills have increased without explanation or some radiators heat unevenly, these often indicate system contamination that powerflushing can resolve. Our engineers can assess your system and advise whether powerflushing would improve performance.

How long does powerflushing take?

A thorough powerflush typically takes a full working day to complete properly. The exact time depends on the size of your heating system and the level of contamination present. We don't rush the process as thorough cleaning is essential for achieving the full efficiency benefits. During this time, you'll be without heating, so we recommend scheduling powerflushing during warmer weather when possible.

Can powerflushing damage my heating system?

When carried out by experienced professionals using proper equipment, powerflushing is safe for your heating system. Our Gas Safe registered engineers have the expertise and specialist equipment to clean your system effectively without causing damage. We assess system condition before starting and use appropriate pressure and chemical treatments for your specific system type and age.

How often should heating systems be powerflushed?

Most heating systems benefit from powerflushing every 5-8 years, though this varies depending on water quality, system age, and whether protective treatments are used. Systems with magnetic filters and regular chemical treatment may need less frequent powerflushing. We can assess your system's condition and recommend an appropriate maintenance schedule based on its specific requirements and usage patterns.
