If you flush through the combi you let it run ? If so, you will feck the pump one day because if you change the direction of the pump then you got 2 pumps working against each other.

I don't think it's good to flush through and will not do it in the future. To push all the mick through the heat exchanger etc don't think it's the right way. I'd rather would flush the heat exchanger seperatly. Someone told me recently he flushes with the biller running in low speed but just in one direction because of the pump. But as mentioned I would not do it will be too expensive if something goes wrong

He doesn't use a power flusher just the mag unit

You certainly wouldn't flush the old combis with diaphragm diverters. I use a magna cleanse because it uses the boilers own pump and also there's no changing direction.

Does it help? How long do you flush it through ?
 
Isn't a wind up just wondering as I do not flush through boilers at all.

yes you do, as ive had the same conversation with you remember you trying the flush the boiler and pipework with the boiler valves closed, you were wondering why there was no flow through the mag unit

and i guess you dont use the mag unit to attach your flushing equipment

Because you phoned me up and asked me why it wasn't flowing and if you attach it to the filter you can't do it any other way (than going through the boiler)

If I do a power flush I do t need to flush through the boiler it will work without it
