Power Flushing & System Maintenance

At Hollis Heating, we understand the importance of giving your home’s heating system a modern family-friendly upgrade. Before we introduce a brand-new boiler to your household, we make sure to show some love to your existing radiators and pipe work. Over time, sludge and debris tend to accumulate in those pipes and radiators, hampering their performance and preventing your radiators from warming up properly. We’re passionate about power flushing your existing system before the new boiler takes center stage, and here’s why:

Neglecting your system can impact the efficiency and overall lifespan of your shiny new boiler

If a power flush isn’t carried out before the new boiler is installed, and you run into issues down the road, the manufacturer might not honor your boiler’s warranty. Those old radiators and pipes could be the culprits. To steer clear of this, we strongly recommend a thorough power flush of the entire system, ensuring that all installation guidelines are met.

Skipping the power flush could lead to fuel costs soaring by an astonishing 35%.

Our aim is to leave you, our valued customers, 100% satisfied with a comprehensive boiler installation that promises years of trouble-free operation.

For that extra TLC and boiler protection, we also like to fit a magnetic cleaner to the heating return pipe, just before the boiler. While it’s not a substitute for power flushing, it’s there to safeguard your boiler over the long haul, with easy access for maintenance. In addition, we install a scale reducer to the cold water supply for your new boiler, whether it’s a combination or a system boiler. Given Kent’s hard water, a scale reducer helps ensure your new boiler functions efficiently over time.

Take a peek at the color of the water! It should be crystal clear before your new boiler takes its place, as anything less could circulate through it, causing issues and potentially voiding your warranty. We’re here to make your home cozy and your family happy, without any worries.
