Floor heating systems accumulate biofilm (bacteria, algae), scale, and corrosion sludge that reduce heat transfer, increase pump load, and can cause deposit-driven leaks in long-serving systems. ROCLEAN is injected via a ROPULS compressor — the chemical deep-clean stage follows mechanical water-air flushing. The chemical stage dissolves fine deposits and biofilm that mechanical flushing cannot remove.

No. ROCLEAN is a concentrate that needs correct dosing flow and system circulation. ROPULS delivers the required water-chemical flow and pulsating air-water regime — without it, cleaning efficiency drops to 30-40 %.
Though ROCLEAN is neutral, gloves and goggles are required when handling any chemical. Detailed SDS (safety data sheet) supplied with the delivery.
ROCLEAN targets local floor heating networks (house, apartment, commercial premises). DH mainline cleaning uses different technologies — contact us.
Rothenberger recommends 1 L concentrate per 100 m² floor heating or per ROPULS procedure guide. A 6 × 1 L pack typically covers 500-600 m² residential.
Before cleaning, drain the system and perform the chemical flush with water. Refill afterwards with a fresh water+glycol mix.
