In a fit of panic, I had already taken the afternoon off work to do just this. The system is draining as I type.I'd give it a couple of drain/fill/run pump/drain cycles so you can feel confident it's all out.
I never saw him use anything like this.some chemical makers offer a neutralising chemical after using their cleaner.
Yes, I am also emptying this, but sponging it out will be useful as well.Is yours an open system with a Feed & Expansion tank in the loft? If so, sponge it clean of any mud.
I am fairly certain that the 'air' in the system is actually hydrogen. I had no idea it could generate such volume. I really hope it has not eaten too much of the rads. Also, the drain that he used at the boiler is above it. I hope stainless steel is not too prone to acid![/b]
