Hi
I have a new boiler and some quite old radiators. The original boiler was replaced when I moved in. I have since found that the system wasnt cleaned very well before the new boiler was installed.
I have heard Sentinel Ferroquest mentioned as a good chemical to clean the system out with. I have tried to find info on the internet about how to introduce this to my sealed central heating system (at least I think its sealed - combi boiler, no water tank, top up braided pipe from mains water to increase the pressure when it drops below 1 on teh pressure scale). The sites I have found that explain how to flush a system say you should get a specialist to flush a sealed system. Is this a d-i-y job - can anyone point me in the right direction?
Should I be just replacing the radiators rather than trying to clean them? If I manage to run this cleaner through the system will the sludge come back again a month later? Or will putting some type of inhibitor chemical into the water keep old radiators in check?
Thank you for your advice.
