PowerFlushing
What is a Powerflush?
Using a specialised machine, a chemical is circulated through your radiators, pipes and boiler at a high pressure. This flushes out any potentially inhibiting deposits and thus allows water to flow freely throughout your system.The length of time needed for a Powerflush typically depends on your system’s size and condition. Usually, a Powerflush takes around 8 hours to complete, depending on the size of a system.
