What is powerflushing?
A powerflush is a way of cleaning out all the rust, sludge and debris that accumulates in your central heating system over time. By removing dirt and blockages in the pipework, you'll extend the life of your central heating system and make sure it works more efficiently as it heats your home.
How often should my system be powerflushed?
This depends on the material your radiators are made out of, the age and type of your boiler, and the hardness of your water. The short and generally agreed upon answer is that you should flush your radiators every 5 to 6 years.
