PowerFlushing is essentially a cost-effective and efficient way of cleaning your central heating system. It is now established by all manufacturers as the most effective way of ensuring a trouble-free installation. A Powerflush machine has it's own built-in pump so when this is connected to your heating system, in place of the existing central heating pump, a cleaning solution is pumped throughout the entire system. Each radiator can be isolated ensuring that all internal pipe work is cleaned, eliminating the risk of sludge, iron oxide or magnetite damaging your new boiler and controls.
Choosing the best boiler or heating system for your home can be a stressful, confusing and often needlessly expensive business. At A.C. Wilgar we aim to deliver the best, most cost-efficient solution for your needs.

I had a bit of issue with water temperature and called them. They booked a appointment and a gentleman came in and said boiler plate needs cleaning etc and he changed me £195. I left home after work 6pm and find out whole my kitchen and leaving room is full of water. The house had power cut and I was lucky it didn’t caused fire. I had a £900 iRobot cleaner which was damaged as well as flooring, rugs. I called the emergency line and they said no point for us to come if you stopped the water and call the office tomorrow. Called them couple times day after and surprisingly they are saying we can’t guarantee how long a boiler can work and we’re not responsible. Pls see the attached photos. Unfortunately I can’t upload videos here.
Brilliant company from start to finish, and it was potentially an awkward project. No fuss, no hassles, no 'sucking in of teeth' but polite, on time and knowledgeable = can't fault them.
Very old shower broke down and I thought it was beyond repair but A C Wilgar managed to locate and order replacement parts and it’s as good as new!! Saved the need for a costly replacement. Polite and professional throughout. As a landlord it’s vital that I have a trustworthy business I can rely on when things go wrong, which is why I have Diamond cover with A C Wilgar and have done for a number of years. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!
We have been using Wilgar for many years, and have no hesitation in recommending them. They are genuine, reliable, professional and reasonably priced. A big thumbs up from us.
Really good and professional service.
Arrived on time and had the issue fixed within the hour.
The quality of the work and communication from the company office was excellent.
The engineer was extremely Competent, courteous and left absolutely zero mess up on completion of the job. Highly recommended.
Had a lovely boiler service yesterday. Lee who attended was really helpful and informative. I was able to ask him a few questions about the boiler and system and he took the time to explain things to me which I really appreciated. First time using A.C Wilgar and it won’t be my last. Will use them again in future and would highly recommend them. Thank you!
We had had temperamental heating and hot water for the last 6 months which finally stopped working. Paul managed to locate the problem, work out the solution and showed great dedication in getting everything up and running properly. We are extremely grateful and would highly recommend both him and the company. Thank you.
Great company, I’m an ex engineer and wouldn’t trust anyone else locally to look after my mums hearing.
