I'm doing my first GB boiler flushing with the Rhomar products.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

    What kind of pump (or purge cart setup) do you have available?

    Just a small pony pump and buckets. I read the container and it said one gallon for 25 gallons. Used about half and going to flush out tomorrow and add the inhibitors.

    We power flush first using fresh water at line pressure. After that, we use the purge cart with a 20µ cartridge filter on the return line and run for awhile.

    My system was petty clean to the eye. The ph was way off and ate up my GB boiler. Buderus recommend the cleaning and adding the inhibitor before replacing the boiler. I'll look into a purge cart for future use. Thanks.
