MORE INFORMATION

What is power flushing?
Power flushing is a thorough method of purging sludge, debris and rust that accumulates in your heating system over time. Various flushing machines are available in the market, and at Willowserve, we boast a comprehensive range of equipment capable of addressing even the most challenging systems. The removal of sludge and debris facilitates improved circulation in the heating system, resulting in quicker heating and better responsiveness to your room thermostat. Consequently, this enhanced efficiency allows for reduced energy consumption over time, ultimately contributing to lower energy bills.

More about Power Flushing and Cleaning Central Heating Systems

While not all heating systems are suitable for power flushing, we have various approaches to address every system, regardless of its age or size. For microbore or particularly old systems, we recommend a chemical treatment. Though this method may take a bit longer, it consistently delivers excellent results.

After our expert team completes your system flush, we apply a corrosion inhibitor to safeguard your entire system against future corrosion and sludge build-up. It’s crucial to regularly check and top up the inhibitor level within the heating system as time goes on. Finally, we conduct thorough heating system heat testing and balancing, fine-tuning it to operate at its maximum potential.

Is it time to clean your heating system?

Keep an eye out for these indicators:

  • Black or rusty water emerging from the radiators during venting
  • Cold spots on the radiators, especially along the bottom
  • Radiators that take an extended period to heat up
  • Unusual noise or kettling sounds emanating from your boiler or heating system
  • Water pumping into the roof tank
  • Elevated fuel consumption

If you notice any of these signs, it may be a signal that your heating system requires cleaning.

Installation of a Magnetic System Filter

After completing a system flush, Willowserve strongly advises the installation of a system filter in your heating system. The powerful magnet within the filter effectively captures metallic particles from the system water, playing a crucial role in preventing additional sludge build-up. This proactive measure helps avoid breakdowns and costly repairs.

Our experienced and highly skilled team ensures the fitting of an appropriate system filter. We prioritize the flushing and cleaning of every heating system when installing a new boiler.

Give your heating system a rejuvenated performance and prepare for winter effectively. Reach out to one of our experts today to discuss the installation of a magnetic system filter.
