ProWise Power Flushing provides homeowners in Bedford and the surrounding towns and villages in Hertfordshire with a first class service to remove the build-up of sludge and debris inside your heating system.

As the iron oxide slush and other debris become lodged in the system, the radiators cannot heat properly, which can raise your energy bills dramatically. With time, these contaminants will eventually cause premature failure of the system.

What is a Power Flush?

A Power Flush is ideally the cleaning process that aims at removing all of the sludge deposits, rust, or any other unwanted materials inside your central heating system. As such, it can help to maximize the efficiency of your central heating and boiler system.

The process involves circulating cleansing chemicals (typically of high-strength), including a corrosion inhibitor, a descaler, and a sludge breaker inside the central heating system to remove all the rust, debris, and other contaminants. The aim here is to improve the circulation inside the system, as well as its efficiency, which ultimately saves you money in energy bills.

Do You Need a Power Flush?

When it comes to determining whether you need to perform a power flush on your heating system, there are several symptoms you need to look out for. Cold spots on the radiators or cold radiators are one of the effective ways. You can also test whether the bleed water from the radiator is dirty.

If your boiler is noisy, or it’s making some banging noises at irregular intervals, or even cutting out, these are signs that you should pay attention to. And if your home is cold altogether, meaning that your heating system fails to heat it up effectively, then a power flush is the best way to revitalise your system.

Other signs include:

• Cloudy tap water (a sign of limescale in the system)

• Small leaks in the radiators

• Cold radiators while the pipes are hot

• Boiler regularly needs restarting

• Noisy radiators and boiler

If your system has any of these symptoms, it’s time to give ProWise a call and schedule for a treatment. Nonetheless, although a boiler power flush is an effective way to get your heating system back on track again, it’s not always that simple. Some damages could actually be cheaper to replace than to repair.

What are the Benefits of a Power Flush?

It extends the lifespan of your heating system: With a clear and efficient heating system, the various components of the system will be working in pristine condition since the rust, corrosion, and damage are reduced. Keep in mind that in the process, a specialised inhibiting agent is run through the system, which helps to prevent further build-up of sludge in the future. Power Flushing is known to increase the lifespan of a system by up to 10 years.

It Improves Efficiency: After the service, your system will be working with minimal effort to keep you and your house warm. In fact, a power flush ensures the system runs as a new system, which means no more noisy boilers, or cold radiators.

Leads to Lower Energy Bills: Since the efficiency of your system is improved, your radiator will heat much faster, and warm your rooms much more quickly without the need to turn your heating to the maximum. This will result in lower consumption of energy, and produce big savings in your energy bills. Customers have reported saving up to 40% on subsequent heating bills.

Lasting Results: Your system can go for another 10 years without the need of another Power Flush, especially if it’s maintained well and serviced regularly. That’s 10 years free from leaking systems, patchy radiators, and blockage from sludge.

Who Should Perform a Power Flush?

Not all power flush companies can perform a power flush in bedford to the same standard. There are so many different chemicals and various equipment available on the market today, and the providers have varying levels of not only expertise but also attention to detail. As a rule of thumb, always check online for customer reviews about each company you are considering working with, and get a recommendation from friends and family if you can.

Can You Perform a Power Flush By Yourself?

Well, no. Although you can find Power Flushing kits for hire and quite a number of instructional videos on the same, this is a risky/ lengthy and complex task. Why not our professional team handle the job for you? They have the required experience to perform the job. Don’t forget that the specialised chemicals and equipment need to be handled only by those that have been trained to do so.

Every central heating system is unique, and it’s dependent on the usage, household, and equipment in place. The cost of performing a Power Flush will depend on your system, its age and the number of radiators.
