Hi Guys, are any of you using a Proflush I purchased one a couple of weeks ago and I've used it twice with a mana cleanse and it's work really well.

I've been connecting the machine up and flushing out the loose sludge etc and then turning off the machine and firing up the boiler and getting the system hot

then isolating individual rads when hot and then flushing rads individually and then dumping and moving onto the next rad. The trouble is when I've dumped a couple of rads all the waters gone cold. How do you guys do it? I've read the instructions but I think I'm missing something somewhere?

how do you use yours? Cheers guys
 
Have a pro flush and magma cleanse also. I tend to use the following procedure

Pre dose with chems and fit mangaclean a week or so before if possible and get cust to run heating.
Get system ready for flushing (link f and e, isolate pump etc.)
Connect flusher and magnacleanse via mc adapter
Open up all lock shields
Run system up to temperature, so you can asses which rads need particular attention
Dump water until clean
Redose with chems and get system up to temp again.
Flush each rad individually (and cylinder, f&e) dumping if water looks manky,maths magnacleanse reduces this need a lot. (I use thermal camera to to check for cold spots)
When happy all is clean open up all rads and dump.
Flush each rad individually to waste until waste tds is ok
Return system to normal and balance
 
Thanks roger I think I've been dumping too much. The tds readings have been good though.
I was thinking I was probably not getting th most out of the chemicals
