Is your heating system slow, unreliable, or leaving you cold? There’s one culprit you need to watch out for: a buildup of sludge or debris in your system.
A blockage forces your boiler to work harder to maintain the same output, driving up your energy bills and slowing operations down. In the worst cases, it could even lead to a complete system failure.
The good news? With a simple power flush, your system can get back to normal in no time.
Power flushing involves pumping a high-pressure mix of hot water and specialised chemicals through your heating system. This powerful jet will scour away any built-up sludge or debris clogging up your pipes, allowing the water responsible for heating your home to flow freely once again.

When Should You Get Your Heating System Power Flushed?
A power flush will clear your heating system of any gunk that might be slowing it down. Here are some signs it might be time to book one in:
Existing Heating Systems
As a general rule, it's a good idea to have your central heating system power flushed every 5 years or so. Combining this with annual servicing goes a long way in avoiding potential issues down the road.
However, there are some telltale signs that you may need a power flush sooner - signs that indicate a blockage is already starting to form. If you notice any of the following, it's a good idea to get your system looked at:
- Rooms that heat up slowly or have persistent cold spots
- Radiators that need frequent bleeding
- Boiler frequently cutting out or cycling on and off
- Unexpectedly high heating bills despite no change in usage
- Noisy banging or gurgling from your radiators or pipes
- Discoloured or dirty water coming from your taps or shower head
- Weak or unreliable water flow
New Heating System Installations
Even brand new heating systems aren't immune to buildup. During manufacturing and installation, tiny metal shavings (installation swarf), soldering residue (flux), and protective oils can remain in the pipes. Debris can gradually build up around them, resulting in a blockage.
Getting your system power flushed shortly after installation will clear away these potential problems and prevent them from getting worse over time.
