5.1 – On the day of the appointment the Gasway engineer will assess the central heating system for suitability for the Powerflush.  They will assess the valves, radiators and other system components to check that they are in good order.

5.2   In carrying out the Powerflush of your central heating system we shall:

  • Add chemicals to your central heating system;
  • Use a Powerflush machine to connect to your central heating system to flush a powerful blend of chemicals through the pipework removing the sludge and rust in the system, destroy limescale and prevent rust from recurring in the future.
  • Once the sludge and any debris have been dislodged by the action of the chemicals we will force clean water through the pipes to remove all the contaminated liquid from the system before properly disposing of it.
  • Following a successful flush a protective inhibitor will be added to the heating system (subject to the boiler/appliance manufacturers guidance).

5.3 – Once the Powerflush process as set out in clause 5.2 has been completed it is possible for the following to occur:

         (i) that some corrosion debris may remain in the system due to:

  • System components (heat exchangers, diverter valves, thermistors, pumps, air vents/separators, pressure vessels, PRV’s, cold feed pipes, motorised valves, TRV’s, filling loops etc) not allowing all corrosion debris or limescale to be removed due to their design, position or condition.
  • Solid blockages in pipes or stuck valves can prevent circulation and therefore cleaning of a pipe circuit or radiator.
  • Ongoing corrosion due to design faults such as: systems pumping over into feed and expansion header tank, pumps drawing in air or the presence of different metals leading to electrolytic corrosion.

(ii)   it may become evident that further works are needed to replace blocked components or scaled sections within the central heating system.

  • Leaks can appear due to debris sealing in the system water where a radiator has corroded within.

SECTION 6 – OUR LIABIITY

6.1 We are not liable for the following after a Powerflush:

  • Any leaks identified in the central heating system which are not caused due to our negligence, and which could not be reasonably identified by us before the Powerflush
  • Any replacement appliance components, radiators, auto air-vents, pumps and system pipework identified as requiring replacement due to the age and condition of the system.
  • Where design faults and faulty components have been identified by Gasway in the central heating system we will offer to rectify and/or replace as appropriate subject to an additional charge for such work. If you do not wish to pay for the additional work then we will endeavour to clean the central heating system as thoroughly as possible however the limits of the current system may make a thorough clean not possible
