If any of these problems sound familiar to you, it’s time to contact us. While a Powerflush may be all that is required to get your heating back on track, unfortunately it is not always that simple. A system may be so damaged that it is actually cheaper to replace rather than repair. Some of these issues may not be resolved with a powerflush and it could potentially be a boiler issue.
