WARMER RADIATORS, HEALTHIER HEATING
Get your central heating back to full health
Over time, sludge, rust and debris build up inside your radiators and pipework. This blocks the flow of water around your system, leaving cold spots, slow heating and a boiler that has to work much harder than it should.
A power flush uses a specialist pump to push water and cleaning chemicals through your whole system at high flow, lifting out the sludge and flushing it away. Chris and his son carry out power flushes in homes across Bedford, Kempston and the surrounding Bedfordshire villages.
Many manufacturers also recommend cleaning your heating system before a new boiler is fitted. We'll check your system first and tell you honestly whether a power flush will help.
IS IT TIME?
Signs your system needs a power flush
If you've noticed any of these, a power flush could make a real difference to your heating.
Cold spots on radiators
Radiators that are warm at the top but cold at the bottom are a classic sign of sludge.
Slow to heat up
If your home takes longer to warm up than it used to, your system may be clogged.
Noisy boiler
Banging or kettling sounds can be caused by restricted flow through the boiler.
Dirty radiator water
Dark, murky water when you bleed a radiator means sludge is building up inside.
Fitting a new boiler
Cleaning your system first helps protect a new boiler and keep it running efficiently.
rising heating bills
A sluggish system makes your boiler work harder and use more gas to heat your home.

POWER FLUSHING FAQS
Power flushing questions
What is a power flush?
A power flush is a deep clean of your central heating system. A specialist pump pushes water and cleaning chemicals through your radiators and pipework at high flow to remove sludge, rust and debris.
How long does a power flush take?
Most power flushes are completed in a day. It depends on the size of your system, the number of radiators and how much sludge has built up.
Will a power flush make a mess?
No. The system stays sealed while we work, and we take care to keep your home clean and tidy throughout.
Do I need a power flush before a new boiler?
It's often a good idea. Many manufacturers recommend cleaning the system before a new boiler is fitted, to protect it from sludge left in old pipework. We'll advise you during your survey.
