Hard Water in London and Your Boiler

21 August 2026 | Leyton Boilers

London's hard water accelerates scale buildup on plate heat exchangers, reducing hot water flow and efficiency. Symptoms include slow hot water and unusual noises.

Regular servicing and descaling where appropriate extends component life. Water softeners or conditioners can help in severely affected properties.

Our engineers assess scale-related faults and recommend practical solutions for local water conditions.
