Unlock Peak Efficiency and Comfort with Expert Power Flushing in Essex
If your radiators are cold, your boiler is making strange noises, or your home simply isn’t heating as it should—your central heating system may be suffering from internal build-up. At PHS Engineers Ltd, we offer specialist power flushing services throughout Essex, designed to strip out the sludge, scale, and corrosion that are silently undermining your boiler’s performance.
We are Gas Safe Registered, fully insured, and trusted by hundreds of homeowners, landlords, and businesses across the county. Whether you live in Chelmsford, Colchester, Brentwood, or Basildon—our expert engineers are ready to restore your heating system and help you lower your energy bills.
Over time, your heating system accumulates a cocktail of contaminants: rust, sludge, and magnetite deposits that clog radiators and block heat circulation. These impurities act like cholesterol in your system’s arteries – forcing your boiler to work harder, consuming more energy, and shortening its lifespan.
A power flush is a high-powered cleaning process that uses specialised equipment to push a chemical solution through your radiators, pipes, and boiler at high velocity. It removes years of built-up waste – resulting in hotter radiators, improved water flow, lower heating costs, and quieter operation.
What Exactly Is Power Flushing - and Why Should You Care?
5 Telltale Signs Your Heating System Needs a Power Flush
Wondering if a power flush is necessary? If you spot any of the following issues, it’s likely time to book:
- Radiators cold at the bottom or patchy in heat
- Gurgling or kettling noises from your boiler
- Discoloured water when bleeding radiators
- Radiators slow to heat up, or some not working at all
- Boiler frequently locking out or displaying fault codes
These are all classic signs of internal build-up—and if left untreated, they can cause irreversible damage to your boiler and central heating components.
