thanks all for your help
what is the name of the chemical that dissolves the sludge/dirt, I will try it this weekend in small doses as suggested.
Also do I just add it via the header tank and drain water out from my drain off valve downstairs?
Ok thanks I will do this.
One question, how do I do a couple of cold flushes after? Do you mean re-fill the whole system and then drain it again, twice? Sorry If this sounds a silly question. If this doesn't do the trick, or completely clear it, would a powerflush be a lot more helpful?
Hello all, I have microcbore heating (old system) and the radiators take ages to warm up and some not very well, so after reading posts and searching I believe the system is easily sludged up more than a normal system due to smaller pipes. Would a X400 clean help or is a powerflush required...
