Why is Power Flushing Essential?
Power flushing is a highly effective way to maintain your central heating system. With regular power flushing, your radiators heat up faster, and you can enjoy a warmer home without overworking your boiler.
A clean system not only heats your property more efficiently but also reduces wear on your boiler, lowering the risk of future repairs.
Signs your central heating system may need a power flush:
1.
Cold Spots on Radiators
Radiators have uneven heating, with cold areas (often at the bottom) despite the heating being on.
2.
Noisy Boiler or Radiators
Unusual banging, gurgling, or clunking sounds indicate trapped air or debris buildup.
3.
Slow to Heat Up
Radiators or rooms take longer than usual to reach the desired temperature.
4.
Discoloured Water When Bleeding Radiators
Dark, dirty water is a clear sign of sludge or rust in the system.
5.
Frequent Need for Bleeding
Regularly needing to bleed radiators to maintain performance.
6.
Boiler Lockouts or Overheating
The boiler frequently shuts down or overheats due to blockages.
7.
Reduced Heating Efficiency
Higher energy bills with less effective heating.
8.
Pump or Valve Issues
Repeated problems with system components like pumps or diverter valves.

If multiple signs are present, it’s likely time for a professional power flush to restore your system’s efficiency.
What to Expect From A Power Flush
Our power flushing process involves connecting a powerful pump to your heating system, which safely circulates a cleaning solution. This solution breaks down sludge and other debris, which is then flushed out of the system.
Your heating pipes and radiators will be clean and clear internally. We complete power flushing across the Exeter, Exmouth, Newton Abbot, Cullompton and Honiton areas – so contact us for a quote today.
