Power Flushing Explained

A power flush is a professional internal cleaning of a central heating system. Using a specifically designed pump with a very high flow rate to flush dirt and debris out of a heating system. In conjunction with the pump chemicals will be used to help breakdown the debris also known as magnatite. To help speed up the process a magnetic filter maybe added while power flushing.

The Benefits of Power Flushing

Over years of use, a central heating system will suffer a build-up of black sludge called ‘magnetite’. This gets in the radiators and pipes. The sludge makes a boiler work harder, and it stops radiators from heating properly. You might find your home doesn’t feel as warm as before and your gas bills might go up.

A power flush removes the magnetite from the radiators and cleans the water that flows through the system. Radiators heat more evenly after a power flush and this helps the rooms warm up faster. A power flush also eases the burden on the boiler, extending its life and lowering utility bills.

Frequently asked questions

Prices start at £500 to power flush a central heating system.

Depending on the size of the heating system and how bad the heating system is, usually it takes between 6 to 10 hours.

Generally speaking not very often, however, if the route cause of the issue causing the build up of sludge is not repaired it could become more frequent.

If your radiators are not getting hot at the top but are at the bottom, then they may just need bleeding. However if they are warm at the top and not the bottom this could be a indication that your system may need power flushing.

Not usually, blockages need to be removed before power flushing, especially blockages in pipes.

Most reasons for power flushes do not work are misdiagnosis, inexperienced plumber/heating engineers giving the wrong advice. If your pump is faulty or slow a power flush will not cure the fault, like wise if the heating system is incorrectly fitted a power flush will not cure the problem.

There are many reasons a boiler could be making a banging noise during operation, it would be better advised to have a competent and skilled person to carry out a diagnosis of the fault before booking a power flush.
