Symptoms and Solutions Symptoms and Solutions Symptoms and Solutions

Symptoms that say "You probably need a powerflush"...

1.Cold spots on radiators
2.Boiler or pump noise or failure
3.Sludge or rust in the system
4.Poor or non-existent hot water
5.Most other things caused by poor circulation.
6.System is slow to heat up.

How To Get Rid Of Them

The 'Powerflushing' pumping unit I use moves a high volume of water at a safe low pressure, with selected chemicals at low pressure around your heating (and hot water) system. The pump is connected to either your heating system circulation pump valves, to the pump head within your combination boiler or on rare occasion to the pipework to one of your radiators.

The pumping unit's powerful flow, combined with a carefully chosen cleaning chemical/s dislodges and mobilises deposits and corrosion which resist the traditional 'cold-hose' flushing method.

The beauty of it is that I do not need to remove any of your radiators. No chance of spilling any of that dirty muck on your nice clean carpets...it's a bugger to clean off!

My lovely powerflushing pump also has an instant flow-reversal switch to free-up any jagged bits of rust that catch on cut ends of pipe, pump valves or radiator washers. The same bits that cause pump failures, cold rads and noisy boilers.

Always allow a whole day

If you've already decided that I'm in with a good chance of getting your business and are about to pick up the phone to call me for more information then you might want to know that I usually aim to arrive between 8 and 8.30

The average job takes 6 hours from arrival to departure. Very occasionally it takes a bit less, although in one case I didn't leave a customers house until 8pm. However long it takes I don't leave until it's fixed and charge no more and no less than the fixed price I always quote.

"I can recommend Ian Pritchard unreservedly.

I found him to be punctual, painstaking and well-equipped, and the central heating is transformed - certainly better than it has been for seven or eight years.

It was impressive that even though the job turned out to be tedious, complicated and took two days instead of one to complete, Ian's enthusiasm never flagged.

Even more impressive was that he stuck to his original quoted price - unprecedented!"
Mike Fage, retired BBC TV producer and classical horn player, Muswell Hill, London

(Note from Ian: two days is very rare indeed. 99% successfully done in one day.)
