FLUSH 20 – pump for flushing and descaling installations
FLUSH 20 by IBO is a compact pump for chemically flushing and descaling heating, refrigeration, and water installations. The built-in tank and manual flow reversal function effectively remove deposits, restoring the system’s flow and efficiency.
Who is it for
- Central heating installers – quickly flushing heat exchangers, boilers, and manifolds without dismantling the installation.
- Heat pump and air-conditioning service technicians – removing limescale and sludge from glycol and refrigeration systems.
- Building maintenance teams – regular descaling of installations in residential and commercial facilities.
- Installation renovation companies – restoring flow in air-locked and sludge-filled systems.
Applications
- Flushing and descaling central heating systems and heat exchangers.
- Cleaning of refrigeration systems, glycol systems, and heat pump circuits.
- Removal of limescale, silica, iron and manganese oxides, and organic deposits.
- Maintenance of installations in residential buildings and small commercial facilities.
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, allowing deposits to be dissolved and flushed from inside pipes and heat exchangers. The maximum temperature of the flushed liquid is 50 °C, while the IP54 protection rating safeguards the device during operation in workshop conditions and on installations.
The device is equipped with a 17 l working tank and a manual flow reversal function (reverse flow). Changing the flow direction cyclically every few to several minutes increases the effectiveness of removing limescale, iron bacteria, and deposits adhering to the installation walls.
FLUSH 20 works with alkaline cleaning and descaling agents, such as IBO Cleaner IC-1. This chemistry dissolves deposits while remaining compatible with the materials used in typical installations. After flushing, neutralization 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?
FLUSH 20 pump applications
FLUSH 20 is designed for the chemical flushing and descaling of heating, cooling, and water systems. The pump circulates the cleaning solution through the system, removing limescale and deposits that reduce flow and system efficiency.
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 commercial partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
Which deposits does FLUSH 20 remove?
Removed deposits
FLUSH 20 removes limescale and calcium deposits, silica, iron and manganese oxides, iron bacteria, and organic deposits from systems.
How does flow reversal work in the FLUSH 20?
Flow reversal
The manual flow-reversal function allows flushing from both sides of the system. Periodically changing the direction increases the effectiveness of removing deposits adhering to the walls.
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 is complete, it is advisable to neutralize the solution and protect the system with a protective agent.
Does Dambat sell FLUSH pumps directly?
Dambat distribution model
As the manufacturer, we direct customers to our network of commercial partners and distributors. This ensures that users receive support in selecting the right device, as well as access to documentation and service.
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 liquids at temperatures of up to 50 °C. After each flushing cycle, it is recommended to rinse the pump with clean water and empty the tank, which extends the device’s service life.
