Powerflushing in Ealing

Central heating powerflush from £500 plus VAT across West London

Central Heating Powerflush

A powerflush from Boiler Boys London clears sludge, rust and debris from your central heating using high-velocity water and cleaning chemicals. It costs £500+VAT for up to 8 radiators, then £50 per radiator after that. Cold spots on radiators, slow heating or noisy pipes are the usual signs you need one. A powerflush restores circulation and gets your system working like new.

If your radiators have cold spots, take an age to warm up, or your heating just is not performing like it used to, the cause is often sludge inside the system. A powerflush is the fix, and we carry them out throughout Ealing, Hanwell, Northfields and the surrounding areas.

During a powerflush we inject water and cleaning chemicals through your system at high velocity. This dislodges the rust, dirt and debris that builds up over the years and can block pipes and radiators, then flushes it all out so water can circulate freely again.

Pricing is simple and transparent: £500+VAT for up to 8 radiators, then £50 per radiator after that. We will confirm the cost for your system before we start, with no hidden extras.

A powerflush not only restores even heating, it protects your boiler and pump from future damage and helps your system run more efficiently. If you have noticed any of the warning signs, it is well worth booking one in.
