Powerflushing is a service you can use to remove the sludge that builds up inside your central heating system. Engineers come to your home, attach a pump to your central heating system. Then they feed a bunch of chemicals through it, designed to clean out blockages and help it perform as new.
As you might imagine, the benefits of Powerflushing are substantial, helping you avoid cold interiors while also protecting your pocketbook.
Improves the Efficiency of Your Heating System
Heating systems depend on the free flow of water through their pipes. The boiler warms water which heats the metal surfaces of radiators, transferring warming action to the surrounding air.
When water can’t flow, though, this process comes to a halt. The heat energy in the water can’t transfer to the air, and the whole system loses efficiency.
Powerflushing reverses this process. It clears out internal blockages, allowing water to flow freely.
Reduces the Likelihood of Boiler Breakdowns
When central heating systems don’t work efficiently, it increases the likelihood of boiler breakdowns substantially. The boiler has to work overtime to keep pace with the demands of the thermostat because the radiators can’t transmit heat energy to the air.
Powerflushing removes the sediment that impedes the flow of hot water through the system, making it easier to heat up rooms, reducing the burden on the boiler unit.
Improves the Life of The Central Heating System
Finally, Powerflushing doesn’t just get rid of sludge in your system – it also protects it against rust in the future using special anti-corrosion chemicals.
