At Safexe Plumbing & Heating, we were recently called out to a home in Exmouth where the heating system was struggling to deliver consistent heat and hot water.
The Problem
The customer had been experiencing:
- Radiators heating unevenly
- Reduced hot water temperature
- Boiler frequently losing efficiency
On inspection, we identified two key issues:
- A build-up of sludge and debris in the heating system, restricting water flow.
- A faulty diverter valve inside the boiler, preventing proper switching between heating and hot water.
Our Solution
We carried out a full system power flush to remove sludge, rust, and debris from the pipework and radiators. This helps improve water circulation, extend boiler life, and restore system efficiency.
Next, we replaced the diverter valve with a new, high-quality part to ensure smooth operation and reliable switching between central heating and hot water.
The Result
The system is now running quietly, efficiently, and providing the customer with strong radiator heat and a steady supply of hot water.
