FLUSH-20 - flushing and descaling pump for installations
The IBO FLUSH-20 is a pump for chemically flushing and descaling heating, cooling and water installations, equipped with an automatic reverse function controlled by an electronic panel. Automatic changes in flow direction and a runtime timer improve cleaning effectiveness and make operation easier.
Who is it for?
- Central heating installers - the automatic flushing cycle allows them to carry out other work while the pump is running.
- Heat pump and air conditioning service technicians - repeatable, time-controlled descaling of glycol and cooling systems.
- Companies maintaining building installations - regular, controlled cleaning of heat exchangers and manifolds.
- Renovation teams - effective clearing of silted and air-locked systems without constant operator supervision.
Applications
- Flushing and descaling central heating installations and heat exchangers.
- Cleaning cooling systems, glycol systems and heat pump circuits.
- Removing scale, silica, iron and manganese oxides, and organic deposits.
- Maintaining installations in residential and commercial buildings.
Features, description and technical data
FLUSH-20 is an electric flushing pump with a power rating of 150 W (0.15 kW), powered by 230 V / 50 Hz. The flow rate is up to 40 l/min at a working pressure of 1.2 bar, while the maximum temperature of the flushed liquid is 50 °C. The IP54 protection rating protects the device during workshop operation and installation work, and the working tank has a capacity of 20 l.
The key feature of the PRO version is the automatic flow reversal operated from the electronic panel. In automatic mode, the pump independently reverses the flow direction at a set interval (configured in minutes) and runs for a programmed period, after which it switches off automatically. Manual mode is also available, allowing the operator to select the flow direction. Cyclic changes in direction improve the removal of scale, iron bacteria and deposits adhering to the walls of the installation.
FLUSH-20 is compatible with alkaline cleaning and descaling agents, such as IBO Cleaner IC-1. These chemicals dissolve deposits while remaining safe for the materials used in typical installations - after flushing, neutralisation and protection of the system with a protective agent (protector) are recommended.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) - what is the FLUSH-20 flushing pump used for?
What is the FLUSH-20 flushing pump used for?
Applications of the FLUSH-20 pump
FLUSH-20 is used for chemically flushing and descaling heating, cooling and water installations. The pump circulates the cleaning solution through the system, while the automatic reverse function improves the removal of scale and deposits.
What is the difference between FLUSH-20 and FLUSH 20?
Differences compared with FLUSH 20
The PRO version has an automatic reverse function controlled by an electronic panel - it independently reverses the flow direction at a set interval and runs for a programmed period. The standard FLUSH 20 model requires the flow direction to be changed manually.
Where can I buy the IBO FLUSH-20 pump?
Where to buy FLUSH-20
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The FLUSH-20 pump is available from our trade partners, installation wholesalers and authorised online distributors.
How does the automatic reverse function work in FLUSH-20?
Automatic flow reversal
After startup, the pump operates in automatic mode and reverses the flow direction at the interval set on the panel. This allows deposits to be removed from both sides of the installation without constant operator supervision; manual mode is also available.
Which chemicals should be used with the FLUSH-20 pump?
Recommended cleaning agents
We recommend alkaline cleaning and descaling agents, such as IBO Cleaner IC-1. After flushing, it is advisable to neutralise the solution and protect the installation with a protective agent.
How should the FLUSH-20 pump be operated and maintained?
Operation and maintenance
The pump should be used within the parameters specified in the documentation, with liquid at a temperature of up to 50 °C. After each flushing operation, rinsing the pump with clean water and emptying the tank is recommended, as this extends the service life of the device.
