  • Page 2 NOTE: If any of these noises are heard, the appliance should not be operated until the cause is identified and resolved. Chemical cleaning of the heat exchanger should only be done at the direction of Armstrong Hot Water, Inc. Failure to follow the prescribed cleaning procedure will result in voiding any warranty of the heat exchanger.
  • Page 3 F. If, within 15-30 minutes of starting, the clean solution turns GREEN (an indication it’s cleaning power is exhausted), additional DS40 System Cleaner needs to be added. Armstrong Hot Water, Inc. recommends that chemical cleaning should be done for no longer than 4 hours, changing direction of the flow in the middle of operation. Timing will depend on the condition of the system and circulation rate.

Follow Start-Up Procedures covered in Part 6 of the Armstrong High Efficiency Water Heaters And Heating Boilers Installation & Operations Manual. NOTE: In the case of a completely plugged heat exchanger, chemical cleaning is almost impossible because of absence of flow. Appliance must be returned to Armstrong Hot Water, Inc.
