What is a System Flush?

A system flush is the process of literally flushing the blockage away with a sudden burst of chemicals, often over the course of at least half a day.

In short, it is a way to make sure that the pipes within your heating system are all clear, which extends their lifespan and makes them much more efficient. With your system flushed, there should not be any sludge inside to slow down the flow of water or the transfer of heat.

Create Consistent Heating

One of the most common problems that stem from sludge blockages is the cold spots in radiators. These cold spots come from the fact that hot water can't get around the system properly, since the sludge is blocking part of the pipe and making it harder for the water to circulate.

Lower Bills

If your system is more efficient, then you are spending less money to turn a given amount of cold water into hot water. This helps you then lower your fuel bills since you are not having to pay for as much power or fuel to make the system function properly.

Boost Boiler Lifespans

Boilers also suffer from maintenance problems if they are constantly dealing with low pressure and/or dirty water. Flush the blockage away, and it can perform under normal conditions without having as much risk of the boiler damaging itself.

Reduce Noise

If you get sludge in the system, then the system has to work a lot harder to get the water through. This means that it will be making a lot more noise, especially if the heating system is having to strain to get the water through a smaller space that it is not designed to tackle.
