Benefits of a powerflush

Not may homeowners may be familiar with powerflushing, or indeed what the benefits of a powerflush are. That's why in this blog post, Boiler Boys London explain exactly what a powerflushing service is, and how your home could benefit from one!

Powerflushing is essentially the use of a high-power jet washer through the entire route of your central heating system (radiators) in order to remove any rust, sludge and other debris that is otherwise inhibiting its performance. To find out more about the process, and how our engineers complete powerflushing jobs, take a look at our powerflushing page

If your central heating system has never had a powerflush, you could be wasting money on top of your gas bills each year, as a build-up of sludge and debris inside your central heating system will mean that it is functioning inefficiently. But what are the benefits of a powerflush, and why should you consider booking this service?


Advantages of a powerflush

Extend your central heating system's lifespan

As sludge and debris accumulates in your heating system over time, this will negatively impact how efficient it is, effecting its performance and costing you more money. While powerflushing cannot make up for lost time, a central heating system that has newly been powerflushed will massively reduce chances of corrosion and prevent any further internal damage.

With this in mind, investing in a professional powerflush can dramatically increase the longevity of your boiler unit, creating a scenario where you save money on upgrading the unit in the future. 

In total, it’s estimated that having regular powerflushes can up to 10 years to the lifespan of your boiler, making it a service that pays for itself over time!

Improve your boiler's efficiency

A powerflush will result in your heating system being able to work with minimal energy being used, once it has been cleansed of any accumulated debris and dirt. This decreases the risk of any tepid water for any showers, and cold spots on your radiator.

Powerflushing your central heating system can make it up to 40% more efficient, which means that your system will function almost as well as if you have just bought a brand new boiler! 

Reduce your energy bills!

Clearly, as the efficiency of your boiler is improved by a powerflush, you will soon notice that your radiators and water supply heats up much quicker. We think that powerflushing is an incredibly cost-effective way of reducing your gas bills, while improving the efficiency of your central heating system. 

As a result, you can consume less energy on a weekly and monthly basis, which will in turn reduce your annual bills and help you to save more of your disposable income, while even reducing your carbon footprint, helping you to contribute to a more sustainable way of living.
