Preparation
Isolate the water heater from the mains (see 4.3.2) before you start maintenance tasks.
Water-side maintenance
To do water side maintenance:
•
Descale the tank (see 11.3.1)
•
Clean the condensate drain (see 11.3.2)
Descale the tank
Note
Hard water may cause the formation of limescale, which will reduce the operating
efficiency and may cause early product failure. Failure of the water heater due to
limescale or other deposits would not be classed as manufacturing defect and as such
would not be covered under the terms of the warranty (on page 3).
To descale and clean the tank:
1.
Decommision the water heater (see 8.10).
2.
Remove the cover plate (5) on the bottom of the front of the tank.
3.
Remove the isolating material to see the cleaning opening.
4.
Loosen the 6 bolts (4).
5.
Remove the cleaning opening cover (3).
6.
Remove the gasket (2).
7.
Inspect the tank and remove the loose scale deposits and contamination:
a)
Remove the scale and contamination by hand.
b)
If necessary use a descaling agent to remove the scale and contamination.
Contact the supplier of your water heater for advice on what descaling agent to
use.
8.
Replace the gasket.
9.
Close the cleaning opening.
Use a torque wrench to tighten the bolts with a maximal torque of 50 Nm to prevent
damage to the tank
