What is a Powerflush?
You may have heard of a powerflush over the years, but you're not sure what one is or how it can help you. Read below to find out:
Put simply; a power flush is a cleaning process that can aid the removal process of debris from your central heating system.
Over time your central heating will accumulate forms of sludge and rust, and these can significantly affect the efficiency of the system or cause blockages and more problems.
In severe cases, this rust can cause corrosion of internal components, meaning the entire system could stop working. An entirely new system and boiler could be required at this stage.
Power Flushing Services
Our engineers can offer this service where it's needed, but an inspection must be done first. Conducting a powerflush is only done in certain situations and must be conducted by a professional, using chemicals not available to the public. The internal heating systems are deep cleaned by using high-pressure water, meaning that any slight contaminants will be washed away.
Contact us today, and we can organise an appointment for you, so our power flushing engineers can assess your situation.
Reasons To Power Flush Your Central Heating System
There are many reasons why you may consider power flushing your central heating system, and many boilers can benefit from getting this service. A new boiler installation can benefit from getting a power flush, as there.
If you have a new boiler installation, it is important to have a power flush because there could be rust and debris in the system, which will only damage the new boiler.
This could ruin your warranty, and some manufacturers will ask for a power flush before a new installation. Our engineers can make sure to do this before installing a new boiler, as the pipework could need cleaning and affect the efficiency.
Power flushing can also help prevent further damage to your boiler, as the contaminants within can cause corrosion.
When comparing costs, a power flush is considerably less expensive than replacing the core components of a boiler, so it's worth considering.
If you're noticing your energy bill increasing over time, then this could be a result of magnetite within the pipework.
This causes the internal workings to lose efficiency and can raise your bill as it tries to counter this. Getting a power flush can cleanse all the systems and make your boiler more efficient once again.
Benefits of a Power Flush
Every engineer we enlist is Gas Safe qualified and registered.
Getting a power flush done within your home will provide more than a cleaner central heating system, and customers begin to notice positive effects almost immediately.
Radiators will heat up quicker and become more efficient, as the water can distribute quicker and heat up quicker. Radiators could become quieter than they once were also.
This long-lasting performance will show you the benefit of getting a power flush, and you'll wonder how you lived without one before. This can also increase the lifespan of your boiler and heating system, as it'll keep all the working components in good health. In turn, this makes your thermal efficiency much better, as you'll find yourself heating the home quicker and, therefore, for cheaper.
Who doesn't want that? Colder spots on your radiators or a noisy heating system are two other reasons to consider getting a power flush.
Magnetite will be to blame for both of these and can cause an uneven distribution of water throughout the system, meaning there's not an even amount of heat throughout your house. The central heating systems can find it challenging to deal with this build-up, so any suspicious noises should be reported and called in.
Who can carry out a power flush?
We believe that a heating and plumbing service should provide the highest quality, and we want to carry that across to our Power-flushing service.
There are many different products and chemicals that a company could use, and some newer companies won't have the needed experience to ensure a good job is done. We make sure to assess the individual boiler, so we know the best method to clean the inner system.
It's best to hire a professional engineer, as they have the experience needed to perform a power flush without harming the components. Nothing is stopping you from doing this yourself, as kits and information are available, but you're at risk of damaging something further. You'll have to ensure you're using the right chemicals and products to clean your unique boiler, and if something does go wrong, your warranty could be at risk.
