What is Powerflushing?

Powerflushing is a high-pressure cleaning process that removes harmful deposits from your central heating system. Over time, these systems accumulate:

  • Sludge: Black iron oxide particles that settle in radiators and pipework
  • Limescale: Calcium deposits that restrict water flow and heat transfer
  • Corrosion Debris: Metal particles from deteriorating system components
  • Flux Residue: Leftover installation materials that encourage corrosion

These contaminants cause numerous problems:

  • Cold spots on radiators
  • Reduced heating efficiency
  • Increased energy bills
  • Excessive noise (kettling/banging)
  • Frequent system breakdowns
  • Premature boiler failure

Our Powerflushing Process

1. Comprehensive System Assessment

Before commencing, we conduct a thorough inspection:

  • Water sample analysis to assess contamination levels
  • System pressure and flow checks
  • Radiator temperature profiling
  • Identification of potential circulation issues

2. Professional Setup

  • Connection of industrial-grade powerflushing equipment
  • System isolation for targeted cleaning
  • Protection measures for your property

3. Thorough Cleaning Process

  • Initial system flush to remove loose debris
  • Chemical cleaner introduction to break down stubborn deposits
  • High-velocity water circulation through each radiator individually
  • Repeated flushing until water runs clear from all areas
  • Special attention to problem areas like heat exchangers and pumps

4. System Protection

  • Thorough system drain and rinse
  • Introduction of corrosion inhibitor to prevent future build-up
  • Optional installation of magnetic filter for ongoing protection
  • System refill and proper venting

5. Final Checks and Documentation

  • Verification of improved flow rates
  • Radiator temperature uniformity checks
  • System pressure balancing
  • Provision of treatment certificate for warranty purposes

What is Magnacleanse?

Magnacleanse is an advanced system cleaning technology that uses powerful magnets to extract iron oxide particles from your heating system. Key features include:

  • Less disruptive than traditional powerflushing
  • Can often be completed in 2-3 hours
  • Particularly effective for newer systems with light contamination
  • Excellent preparation before installing a new boiler
  • Can be performed with minimal system drain-down

Our Magnacleanse Process

1. System Connection

  • Specialised Magnacleanse unit connected to your heating system
  • Minimal disruption to your property

2. Targeted Cleaning

  • Chemical cleaner circulation to dislodge deposits
  • Powerful magnetic filters capture circulating iron oxide particles
  • Sequential radiator cleaning process

3. System Protection

  • Thorough system flush to remove cleaning chemicals
  • Introduction of high-quality inhibitor
  • Installation of permanent magnetic filter recommended
