What is Power Flush?

A power flush is a chemical solution that cleanses your central heating system and removes any elements inside of pipes, such as rust or debris that may be causing it not to work as well.

Using high velocity, low-pressure jets of water and cleaning solution to flush out the pipes, our power flush service is designed to restore your central heating system to optimum operation.

Our team of Gas Safe engineers provide power flush services across South Wales and the home counties, ensuring that all of our clients’ heating systems are working to their full capacity, removing any build-ups that could be causing issues.

Why is Power Flushing Needed?

It is crucial for the maintenance and continued health of your heating system that it is cleaned thoroughly on a regular basis to stop the accumulation of sludge or debris. Blockages such as this account for over 80% of central heating issues – power flushing can both resolve the problem and prevent it from occurring again in the future.

When your heating system is clogged with this debris, it can cause your boiler to work harder to fully heat your home. Power flushing will not only restore your central heating system back to optimal efficiency, but could save you money on your energy bills.

A power flush is also recommended before the installation of a new boiler to an existing central heating system.

Power Flushing Will:

• Improved energy efficiency and reduced utility bills
• Prolonged lifespan of your central heating system
• Even heat distribution throughout your home or commercial property
• Flexible booking and short-notice availability
