Central Heating Systems
All central heating systems require continuous maintenance to ensure they are working at their optimal level. Over time, the efficiency of all central heating systems gradually reduces and sometimes leads to the eventual breakdown. There are many preventative measures people can take to ensure their central heating systems are working at their best. Some key measures My London Tradesmen recommend include:
Power Flushing the Central Heating Systems:
Power Flushing is a service My London Tradesmen recommend all homeowners have performed on their central heating systems. Power Flushing is the process to eradicate accumulated corrosive sludge from central heating systems. During the process, the engineer flushes the system with water and a chemical cleaning agent. Once all the hydrogen and iron oxide has been purged from the system, clean water is flushed through the central heating systems to bring it back the water back to a neutral ph level.
Sludge accumulates inside the central heating systems because of the constant flow of water. Over time the sludge deposits increase and block areas of the radiators and pipes, preventing water from flowing properly through the central heating system. When water cannot flow properly, the central heating fails to work efficiently, causing those annoying central heating problems you have probably experienced. Some of the issues you may have experienced include cold spots and leaky radiators, unpredictable water temperatures and a noisy boiler
MagnaClean Filter installation:
After Power Flushing the central heating systems, a MagnaClean Filter installation is advisable. The MagnaClean Filter installation is a quick and easy process when performed by a highly qualified and experienced engineer. The MagnaClean Filter prevents sludge from accumulating inside the central heating systems again to keep it working efficiently.
Annual Boiler Servicing:
An annual boiler service is highly advised for everyone to ensure their central heating systems continue to work properly. In addition it is highly recommended to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. When a boiler has not been properly maintained or ventilated, it can produce carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms include breathlessness, stomach pains and headaches. As you cannot see or smell carbon monoxide, it is a silent killer. Booking an annual boiler servicing will prevent these dire consequences. During the annual boiler service the engineer inspects all components of your boiler including the heat exchanger and ignition. The engineer inspects fixes and cleans all components of your boiler to bring it functioning at an efficient level.
