I got a power flush booked in and they have a back boiler, they have no idea of the make or age or even if has ever been serviced.
is there anything I need to no about flushing them? Or just crack on as per normal?
I use a fernox powerflow with magnetic filter and usually f5
 
Any chance it might have a scale problem ? as you may need something more aggressive to get rid of scale, and note on some old BBU the vent & Cold feed came right back to the boiler.
 
Cheers, so just crack on as per usual. I keep a fx2 in the van just incase ever needed but I don't like using it
 
Pmsl as soon as started asking questions they just refunded it.

i decided to go for early learning centre and fisher price stickers lol
