Cold Radiators? Noisy Boiler?
Over time, heating systems build up with iron oxide (rust) and sludge. This black sludge settles in your radiators and pipes, preventing hot water from circulating properly.
Common signs your system needs attention:
Cold Spots
Radiators cold at the bottom or middle.
Noisy Boiler
Kettling, banging, or whirring noises.
Dirty Water
Black or brown water when bleeding radiators.
Slow Heat Up
System takes ages to get warm.
Advanced ThoroughFlush™ Cleaning
We don't just "power flush" — we use the advanced ThoroughFlush technique. Unlike older methods that recirculate dirty water, our system uses high-velocity mains pressure to blast fresh, clean water through your heating system.
Why ThoroughFlush is Better:
- Fresh Water Power: We flush with clean water constantly, not dirty recycled water.
- Dual-Pass Cleaning: We reverse the flow instantly to dislodge stubborn sludge from both directions.
- Faster Results: Your system gets cleaner, faster, meaning less disruption to your day.
- Boiler Protection: Stops sludge from killing your pump and heat exchanger.
We combine this with MagnaCleanse magnetic filtration to trap and remove even the smallest particles of iron oxide.

Prevention is Cheaper than Cure
Once your system is clean, you want to keep it that way. We recommend installing a Magnetic System Filter (like a MagnaClean).
This small device sits on your pipework and catches any black sludge before it enters your boiler. It is the single best way to protect your boiler from breakdowns.
We can fit a magnetic filter to your existing system in just a few hours.
