WHAT FAILS HERE

Heating faults common in Forest Gate

Working in Forest Gate often means encountering original systems that have never been cleaned, where corrosion, not component failure, is the primary adversary.

01

Cold spots at the bottom of old radiators

Long-serving systems with untreated water accumulate magnetite sludge, which settles and blocks heat exchange. An engineer will feel for temperature differences across the radiator and may test a small amount of system water with a magnet to confirm contamination.

02

Noisy boiler operation and reduced efficiency

System sludge circulates, causing kettling noise in the heat exchanger and overworking the pump. Diagnosis involves checking the pump itself for resistance and listening for restricted water flow, which are strong indicators that a power flush is needed to restore proper function.
