Professional Power Flushing by Aigburth Plumbing & Heating
Over time, heating systems can become less efficient, noisy, and slow to heat up. If your radiators have cold spots or your boiler is working harder than it should, your central heating system could be clogged with sludge and debris.
At Aigburth Plumbing & Heating, we offer expert power flushing services in Liverpool to restore your heating system’s performance, improve energy efficiency, and extend your boiler’s lifespan.
What Is Power Flushing?
Power flushing is a deep-clean process for your central heating system. It uses a specialist machine and chemical cleaner to flush out sludge, rust, and scale build-up that naturally accumulate inside radiators and pipework over time.
This contamination restricts water flow and makes your boiler work much harder to heat your home — leading to higher energy bills and potential breakdowns.
After a professional power flush, your system runs cleaner, hotter, and far more efficiently.
Signs Your Heating System Needs a Power Flush
You may not see the sludge inside your pipes, but your heating system gives off warning signs when it’s struggling. Look out for:
- Radiators slow to heat up
- Cold spots at the bottom or centre of radiators
- Noisy boiler or pipes (gurgling, banging, or kettling sounds)
- Discoloured or dirty water when bleeding radiators
- Frequent need to bleed radiators
- Boiler regularly cutting out or showing error codes
- Inconsistent heating throughout the home
If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s likely your system could benefit from a power flush.
