Powerflush Benefits:
Once the power flush is complete, we measure the new temperature of the radiators, and you’ll find the improvement impressive. You’ll immediately experience the following benefits:
- Increased energy efficiency
- Lower fuel bills
- Radiators’ heat output restored to full working order
- Rapid system heating
- Thorough cleaning of the entire central heating system
- Removal of aggressive water; further water treatment prevents corrosion
- Elimination of noise in the boiler, pipes, and radiators
- Sludge removal and de-scaling in a single visit
- Support for boiler warranties
- Protection against boiler breakdowns
When a boiler and pump have to work harder to push water through a dirty, backed-up central heating system, it also takes longer to heat the water, consuming more gas. After the power flush, the water can flow freely and heat up quickly, resulting in lower fuel bills. Energy costs rise every year in Bletchley, but the increased energy efficiency will help shield you from these rising expenses.
You’ll notice that every radiator in your house now offers full heat output. They become hot across the entire surface and warm up much faster than before. Additionally, your boiler, pump, pipes, and radiators will operate more quietly.
Any annoying or even alarming noises you previously experienced will be gone. Power flushing is beneficial for boiler warranties and breakdown insurance. New boiler installations require power flushing beforehand to validate the boiler warranty, as failing to do so can invalidate it.
The last thing you want circulating through your brand new boiler is dirty, corrosive water. Our engineers always carry out power flushing before installing new boilers. After power flushing, the likelihood of a boiler breakdown is significantly reduced, giving you peace of mind. You’ll enjoy a cosy winter without unpleasant surprises from your heating system.

We have highlighted below some of the signs that you may need a power flush at home or in your business:
Prevent wastage
If the correct water treatment methods are not adhered to, corrosion debris will undoubtedly build up in the boiler system resulting in limescale deposition. As a result, up to 30% of the system’s fuel consumption may go to waste.
Noise from your boiler
You may notice the noise from your boiler system increasing in frequency and intensity. This is due to deposits of sludge and scale building up in an unprotected boiler.
Cold spots on your radiator
You will notice that your radiators typically have cold spots in the lower areas. A cold spot of this nature indicates that a sediment build-up is restricting flow and lowering heat output.
How A Power Flush Works
Power flushing, also called jet flushing or hard flushing, is a procedure where water mixed with chemicals is circulated through your central heating system over several hours.
During this process, the mixture of water and chemicals effectively clears out sludge, debris, rust, oil, limescale, and other unwanted substances from your heating system. The water is pumped at low pressure to ensure that no pipes or fittings come loose or burst. It is important that power flushing is performed by a qualified professional.
Our engineers have extensive experience performing power flushes on heating systems throughout Bletchley. The length of time needed to complete a power flush depends on the age and size of the system as well as the level of contamination.
Power Flush Procedure
Before beginning the power flush, we measure the heat output of the radiators to demonstrate the improvement after the flush is completed.
One of our engineers will connect the power flush machine to your central heating system. For combi boilers, the machine is connected at the head, whereas for system boilers, it is connected at the pump. The machine circulates a special chemical solution through your pipes, boiler, and radiators.
This chemical solution, which includes a descaler, flows through the system, effectively removing sludge, rust, and limescale. Our plumbers collect the contaminated water from the system and disposes of it safely. The system is then refilled with clean water and a corrosion inhibitor, which will keep the system clean and help prevent similar issues from arising in the future.
In cases where the system is heavily blocked, there may be stubborn obstructions that need to be dislodged from the outside of the pipes or radiators. We have the necessary tools to do this with minimal disruption and no damage to your system.
