Rejuvenate Your Heating System
Over time some heating systems may experience poor circulation resulting in lukewarm radiators poor hot water, increased noise and sludge build up. By ‘power flushing’ your heating system, the sludge and built up residue will be removed via inline magnetic filtration, it will make your system work more efficiently.
We are one of the few companies in York and surrounding area that specialise in powerflushing and have brought back to life many old heating systems and saved customers £100’s of £££ especially on oil & LPG boiler central heating systems.
How does Power Flushing work?
Because the water in a central heating system is always pumped in the same direction, iron filings, sludge, oil and grease build up within each radiator in your system. This has a detrimental effect on the efficiency of both your radiators and your boiler – in fact – your whole central heating system, reducing its life expectancy.

When a system is professionally power flushed, the system is flushed in different directions, agitating the sludge and debris, so the system can be drained of the deposits. When flushing a system, special chemicals are used to ensure the breakdown of the sludge inside the system, prior to the deposits being removed.
Power flushing your Central Heating system can also extend the lifespan of your boiler and under Part L of the building regulations, your system must be power flushed when an old central heating boiler is being replaced by a new boiler.
The cost of power flushing does vary so please do call to arrange a site visit or discuss your requirements over the phone.
