Power Flushing: The Key to a Healthy Heating System

If your central heating system isn’t performing as well as it used to, you may benefit from a professional power flush. Over time, sludge, rust, and other debris can build up inside your radiators and pipes, causing inefficiency and costly breakdowns. At Burns Heating, we offer expert power flushing services to restore your heating system to peak performance.

What is Power Flushing?

Power flushing is a deep-cleaning process for your central heating system. It involves using a high-powered pump to circulate a special cleaning solution through your radiators, pipes, and boiler to remove built-up sludge and debris. This helps restore efficiency, improve circulation, and extend the lifespan of your heating system.

Signs You Need a Power Flush

Not sure if your heating system needs a power flush? Here are some common warning signs:

• Cold spots on radiators, especially at the bottom

• Noisy boiler or radiators

• Slow heating response time

• Dirty or discoloured water when bleeding radiators

• Frequent boiler breakdowns

• Higher energy bills due to reduced efficiency

If you notice any of these issues, a power flush could be the solution to restoring your heating system’s performance.

Benefits of Power Flushing

1. Improved Heating Efficiency – A clean system heats up faster and distributes warmth more effectively throughout your home.

2. Lower Energy Bills – An efficient heating system consumes less energy, saving you money in the long run.

3. Prolonged System Lifespan – Removing harmful debris prevents damage and extends the life of your boiler and radiators.

4. Reduced Risk of Breakdowns – A clean system is less likely to suffer from costly malfunctions and repairs.

5. Even Heat Distribution – Say goodbye to cold spots and uneven heating in your home.

How Does Power Flushing Work?

During a power flush, a trained heating engineer will:

• Connect a powerful flushing unit to your heating system

• Pump a chemical cleaning solution through the pipes and radiators

• Dislodge and remove built-up sludge, rust, and debris

• Flush the system with clean water

• Add an inhibitor to prevent future build-up

The process typically takes a few hours, depending on the size and condition of your heating system.
