Hello chaps

Two years and 20 call outs (insured)

The radiators were power flushed two years ago and an inhibitor left in the system
Two years on fernox water sample is clear.
Filter also fitted two years ago.
System loses pressure but mostly just stops
Engineer says the boiler itself is probably sludged up.
Recommends Fernox sludge remover

sound like we finally have the answer? Shall I go and buy this?
 
Get another opinion

b Be surprised if its sludges up again unless it was never flushed accordingly in the first instance.

A bit more information required what just stops ? & how often do you have to top up the sealed system?
Warning
If you have a leak on the system a strong sludge remover could make it very much worse.
 
Is your engineer suggesting that sludge is causing the pressure to keep dropping?
