Power flushing

Power-flushing is the process by which the central heating system of a house is flushed clean of rust, sludge and any other debris that may have accumulated.

A high flow/low pressure pumping unit is attached to the heating system circulation pump and a series of strong cleansing chemicals are flushed through the entire system.

The benefits of power-flushing

The result of power-flushing is that the boiler and the rest of the central heating system become more efficient.

This occurs because there is better circulation through the pipe work and the radiators and in turn the boiler doesn’t have to work as hard to warm the house and water.

Therefore the overall result is that you save money on your gas bills.
