    Get a professional in to do it, it's messy and horrible and if anything goes wrong you'll be left with an even bigger mess to sort out.

    It also depends on when the last time your system was flushed, the longer the messier.

          Where's you sense of adventure!!

          If it goes wrong, then look on it as a learning experience for the next time

            The best money I have ever chucked at a plumber was when we had our house power flushed. I was all for getting all the radiators and the boiler replaced but was talked into giving a flush a go. We went from having to burn £20 notes to keep warm to needing to open the windows to cool down.

                So "Have you tried power flushing the radiators?" is the new meme?
