Hi folks,

No posts from me for ages now that I'm employed again and living in
Cambs during the week......

Couple of weeks ago we discovered most of our reclaimed cast iron
radiators are cold at the bottom so they're obviously suffering from
sludge - we'd never checked them before installation 3-5 years
ago......hey ho.

The system is sealed so we're looking at options for flushing, and
having seen these power flushers you can hire for a few quid I guess
I'll be doing that next weekend. There's 2 types that I can see (or
they might be the same but with different converting options), one
that goes in place of the boiler pump to do the whole system and one
that fastens between the radiator tails to do one radiator at a time.

For an example go to www.hss.co.uk and feed 51610 into the search box.

Anyone got experience of these things? Or has a better way of flushing
that doesn't involve carting them outside

cheers!
