Thanks for all the replies. I have looked at hiring a power flusher
but the only one I can find is about £100 and it doesn't mention use
in a sealed system.
Yes it will work with a sealed system. £100 is a reasonable price.
How do you actually attach power flushers to the CH system? Do you need
to provide a special port or something?

Usually they hook into the pump position - at least on ones that I've seen.


How can I find this out for sure before actually hiring one? The
instructions of the HSS one were vague at best about this matter. I
doubt the hire shop will really know how to use it.


Did you see the downloadable PDF instructions as well as the top-line
version on the site?


Yes, they were the instructions I was referring to! There it says it
can be connected across the pump with it removed or across the
radiator so I guess the latter would be better for me.

Reading the instructions today they don't seem quite as confusing ;-)
I wish they described the procedure for a sealed system though.

Can anyone explain how to get inhibitor (X100) in to a sealed system?
