Power Flushing in Hadlow

Power Flushing in Hadlow and Surrounding TN11

Hadlow is a rural village east of Tonbridge with a housing stock that includes properties of considerable age — many of which have central heating systems that have been in continuous operation for fifteen to twenty years or more. Older systems in Hadlow, particularly those in the period properties along Maidstone Road and the farm buildings and cottages in the surrounding lanes, are the most likely candidates for power flushing.

The build-up of magnetite sludge is a natural process: as the iron in radiators and steel pipework corrodes slowly over time, the resulting particles are carried around the circuit by the circulating water. Without corrosion inhibitor to slow this process, the particles accumulate at the lowest points of the system — primarily the radiator bottoms and the heat exchanger inside the boiler — restricting flow and making the system increasingly inefficient.

Our power flushing process connects a specialist high-velocity pump to the heating circuit and circulates water and chemical cleanser through every radiator and length of pipe, dislodging the accumulated deposits and flushing them out through a collection point. We clean each radiator individually and verify that it is heating evenly before moving on. Once the entire circuit is running clear, we add Fernox F1 or Sentinel X100 inhibitor to protect the newly cleaned system against future corrosion.
