APG Domestic Services specialise in powerflushing throughout Lancashire.
Powerflushing is a cleaning process used to remove sludge, rust, and other debris from a central heating system. It involves circulating a high-velocity, low-pressure flow of water and a cleaning agent through the system to dislodge and remove accumulated deposits.
The cost of the power flushing service will depend on the size and number of radiators in your home, contact us for a no obligation quote.
The powerflushing process typically involves the following steps:
There are several signs that may indicate your central heating system could benefit from a powerflush:
Cold Spots on Radiators: If your radiators have cold spots, particularly at the bottom, it may be due to sludge or debris buildup preventing proper water circulation.
Noisy Boiler and Radiators: Unusual noises such as banging, clanging, or gurgling from your boiler or radiators can indicate blockages or trapped air caused by sludge.
Slow Heating: If your radiators take a long time to heat up or do not get as hot as they should, it could be due to restricted water flow from debris buildup.
Frequent Boiler Lockouts: A boiler that frequently shuts down or needs resetting may be suffering from circulation issues caused by sludge or scale.
Dirty System Water: If the water drained from your heating system during maintenance is discoloured (usually brown or black), it suggests the presence of rust and sludge.
Reduced Efficiency: Increased heating bills or reduced overall efficiency of your heating system can be a sign of internal blockages hindering performance.
Radiator Leaks: Corrosion caused by sludge can lead to small leaks in radiators, which may be a sign that a powerflush is needed to clean the system.
Boiler Overheating: An overheating boiler can result from restricted water flow due to internal blockages, leading to inefficient operation and potential damage.
If you notice any of these signs, it may be beneficial to consult APG Domestic Services to assess your system. We can determine if a powerflush is necessary and provide professional services to restore your central heating system's efficiency and performance.
