Using simple water quality testing and an easy-to-understand online dashboard, you'll receive independent information about water quality, system protection, water balance and overall heating system health.
Many heating system problems look the same on the surface. Cold radiators, black radiator water, poor circulation and rising heating bills can have several different causes.

How often should I test my heating system water?
We recommend using a test kit annually, ideally in early summer before the heavy winter usage begins to avoid delays and ensure your heating system is available when you need it. You may experience outages if you do need an engineer to visit and you wait until the winter months. Regular testing is the most cost-effective way to catch minor issues before they become expensive breakdowns.We recommend checking your heating system water at least once a year, especially before the colder months when your heating system is used more heavily. Regular testing can help you monitor water quality, inhibitor protection and pH balance over time, giving you a clearer record of your heating system’s condition.
