Powerflushing
RCB Plumbing Ltd provides expert powerflushing to restore your heating system's performance and efficiency. Our professional service removes sludge, rust, and debris from your radiators and pipework, helping you save on energy bills and extend system lifespan.
Why Your Heating System Needs Powerflushing
Over time, central heating systems collect harmful deposits that restrict water flow and reduce heating efficiency. Professional powerflushing removes these blockages, restoring your system to optimal performance and protecting against future corrosion and breakdown.
Lower Energy Bills
A clean, efficient heating system requires less energy to heat your home, potentially reducing your heating costs by up to 15%.
Extended System Life
Removing corrosive sludge and debris prevents damage to your boiler and system components, extending their operational lifespan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our powerflushing services.
Signs include radiators that are cold at the bottom, noisy boiler or heating system, radiators that need frequent bleeding, or a heating system that's slow to warm up.
A typical powerflushing service takes 6-8 hours to complete for an average-sized home with 10 radiators. Larger systems may require longer.
Our engineers take care to minimise disruption. The process is generally non-invasive, though we do need access to your heating system. You'll be without heating during the process, but it's usually completed within one day.
We recommend powerflushing every 5-6 years for most systems. However, if you notice signs of system inefficiency sooner, an earlier treatment may be beneficial.
While powerflushing effectively removes sludge and improves efficiency, it may not resolve all heating issues. Our engineers will advise if additional repairs or services are needed for optimal performance.
