When installing a new boiler, one question many homeowners face is whether they need to perform a power flush on their central heating system. At Complete Gas Heating Services Ltd, serving Bath, Radstock, and the surrounding areas, we recommend considering a power flush to enhance the efficiency and longevity of your new heating system.
What Is A Power Flush?
A power flush is a process that cleanses your central heating system of sludge, rust, and other debris that can accumulate over time. These contaminants can affect the efficiency of your boiler and, if left unchecked, can lead to higher energy costs and potential breakdowns.
Why Consider A Power Flush?
Installing a new boiler presents an excellent opportunity to cleanse your system, ensuring that it runs at peak efficiency. Here are a few reasons to consider a power flush:
- Efficiency: A clean system distributes heat more evenly and requires less energy to heat your home, reducing your energy bills.
- Protection: Removing debris and build-up protects the internal components of your new boiler from damage and wear.
- Longevity: A clean heating system can extend the life of your new boiler, as it prevents the build-up that can cause breakdowns and the need for repairs.
When Is A Power Flush Necessary?
A power flush is particularly recommended if:
- You have noticed cold spots on radiators or it takes a long time for your home to warm up.
- There are noisy pipes or boiler due to restrictions in water flow.
- You are replacing an old boiler with a new one, as integrating a new boiler into a dirty system can quickly undermine its efficiency and lifespan.
