Central heating power flushing – getting set for whatever winter has in store
The pipework that carries the hot water to heat your radiators can start to deteriorate when your central heating system’s working hard in winter. Rust and sludge build-up inside your central heating system causes cold spots and poor performance, costing you more in energy bills as your central heating works harder to keep your home warm.
A central heating power flush involves injecting a special combination of chemical inhibitors that break down rust, limescale and sludge into your central heating system, before flushing unwanted material out of your heating system. Finally, a rust inhibitor is poured into the system, to stop future corrosion and prevent the build-ups from returning. After a central heating power flush, your central heating will work more efficiently, and you could even see the benefits in the form of lower bills.
Book a power flush for your central heating system during the summer to avoid a chilly house and household! With your central heating system not needed as frequently, or at all, a power flush is easily carried out when the heating’s off by RJ Martindale’s local plumbers in Bolton, Horwich, Chorley and Preston, with no impact on the enjoyment of your home.
