How much does it cost to empty the cylinder from the crystals and flush through the system? Thanks
Expert Trade Answers
Best Answer
"Generally if it's that scaled up, you might want to look at getting cylinder replaced( especially it it's bare, no jacket or yellow foam jacket as the copper will be getting soft also) , the hourly rate will probably off-set the cost of new tank slightly.
If the scale is really bad it would be worth looking a getting a water softener
Hope this helps ."

"A lot depends on where you are located within the UK due to the hardness of the water within your region. Approximately you would be looking at £225 in the north West."
