Why Does My Central Heating Need a Powerflush or Descale?
Rust occurs in all central heating systems producing a black (iron oxide) sludge and, in hard water areas, lime scale builds up in combination boilers just like in your kettle causing the following problems:
|
Radiators cold at bottom due to black sludge.
|
Radiators cold all over due to blocked valves and pipes
|
|
Radiators cold at top and need bleeding due to gases, a by product of rusting
|
Boiler cutting out and no circulation due to blocked pump.
|
|
Little or no hot water due to blocked pipes and heat exchangers
|
Irritating boiler noise from sludge or lime scale build up, a warning sign of imminent costly problems
|
Did you know that from the very first day that your central
heating was commissioned its efficiency starts to drop. It has been calculated
that within a few months the system can lose 10% of its efficiency. When copper
pipe is exposed to hot water a chemical reaction takes place that produces a
black substance called Magnetite. This circulates around the central heating
system and eventually settles in the radiators, this seriously affects the
performance of the system and can in many cases lead to boiler failure. This can
be very expensive to repair.
On new installations it will soon be the law that an inhibitor is put into the
system to stop this happening. But this will not remedy the situation on old
systems. Power Flushing is the only guaranteed method to clean the system and
restore it to its original condition. In many cases people have replaced boilers
and carried costly work to central heating systems, which have made little or no
improvement in performance.
