They need a proof reader and a spell checker.
Powder Flush T was designed to clean hardened sludge out of central heating systems, there are many instances where normal power flushing flails to clean enough of the sludge out of the system, for it to work correctly. Many older systems or systems containing plastic pipes do NOT get cleaned well enough by standard power flushing and a lot of the time, plumbers recommend replacing the whole system. With us, replacement is no longer necessary! Powder Flush was designed for the shortcomings that normal power flushing has. Dissolvable pellets (of different sizes) gets added to the central heating water while flushing the system. This acts as a mild abrasive that harder than any sludge but softer than the metals, plastics or rubbers in the system and does NOT cause any increase in risk of leaks, when compared to normal power flushing. It will not scratch or damage any part of the system. Powder Flush can recondition pipework to almost new. Normal power flushing can only clean loose sludge with fast flowing water and chemicals and is NOT very good at loosening up or removing hard build-ups of sludge. Our custom built Powder Flush machines are up tp 300% more powerful than any other commercially available, power flush machine and we guarantee to clear any sludge blockage, no matter how bad your system is. I'm a little dubious on this one. I do not believe in any miracle cures. I have a friend with terrible noises in the pipes and strange random faults since a new boiler was fitteed despite two power flushes. I suspect that this stuff might make things worse!
