Central Heating in Ash
Magnetic-filter & power-flush specialists — local team covering GU12 and surrounding areas.
Ash water is hard enough that central heating systems here suffer from limescale fouling on top of the usual magnetite sludge problem. A proper system clean here is a two-stage process — chemical descaler first to dissolve scale, then a magnetic flush to remove the freed sediment — not the single-stage flush some contractors call a power flush.
Why this matters in Ash
We see a lot of Ash heat exchanger failures driven by scale that's been silently accumulating because there's no scale reducer on the cold mains. Fitting a polyphosphate cartridge during a power flush adds £80 to the job and stops the same problem recurring on the next boiler.

Central Heating in Ash — common questions
Will a power flush actually help if my Ash heating has limescale, not sludge?+
Only partially — a standard power flush is great for sludge but doesn't dissolve limescale. For Ash systems we do a two-stage clean: chemical descaler first (24-hour soak), then a magnetic flush. It costs more (typically £550-£700 vs £400 for a basic flush) but actually deals with both problems.
Do I really need a power flush in Ash?+
Only if your system genuinely needs it — we diagnose with thermal imaging and a magnetic filter inspection across Ash systems before recommending. If your filter is empty and rads heat evenly, you don't need a £400 flush. If the diagnosis says you do, we'll show you why.
How long does a central heating upgrade take in Ash?+
Depends on the work — magnetic filter retrofit + power flush is one day, partial repipe and radiator upgrade is typically 2-3 days, full system replacement (boiler + cylinder + rads) is 3-5 days across Ash including Ash Vale, Ash Green, Tongham. We give a precise timeline at quote.
