Today, we have been completing a powerflush on a system in the Kenton area.
This is what happens when an installer fails to flush a system correctly or treat the system water with a suitable means of protection
This 10 year old Baxi combi boiler was suffering from circulation faults, which included boiler cycling, poor heating performance and extremely poor hot water delivery.
We recommended that the most suitable solution for the customer was to install a magnetic system filter, and powerflush their heating system.
We also completed a full strip down service, replaced the diverter cartridge, auto air vent, fill loop and removed and cleaned the internal gauze filter in the boiler return valve, which was completely blocked with system sludge. We also removed and thoroughly cleaned the plate heat exchanger.
Finally, we recalibrated the gas valve to within manufacturer tolerance for optimum efficiency and performance.
The boiler is now fully functional, and running as good as the day it was installed.
