Include inhibitor
Both limescale and sludge are the significant causes for the destruction of your boiler system. If you add an inhibitor to the system, it will act effectively in the prevention of limescale and sludge build up and you system can stay protected against corrosion.
If the build up of these elements have not been checked for a long time then progressively it will interfere in the smooth performance of your boiler. You can notice it easily by observing the cold spots on the radiators. All of a sudden you will find that your boiler system gets dead completely.
Hence, it is crucial for you to hire the services of a reliable Gas safe engineer to include inhibitor in your boiler.

As the sludge predominantly builds up in your system it will end up with the formation of rust inside of the pipes. Therefore it is highly recommended to use magnetic filters and radiators so that these metallic elements can be filtered out completely without causing any potential damage to the boiler system.
Along with the inhibitor, these additional elements are a great advantage for your boiler system and you can ask your heating engineer to do it for you.
Powerflush your boiler system
If a sludge build up is already installed, you must install the power flush to flush the accumulated build up out of your boiler system. You may also include the inhibitor in it as the prevention against reaccumulation of the build up in the system. You can also hire the service of your local Gas Safe engineers to do the job for you.
Condensate the pipes or lag outdoor pipes

As a result, your boiler may get broken down suddenly and even you may experience leaky and burst pipes in your plumbing system.
