H) GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND CARE
If the water heater is likely to be exposed to freezing weather then it should be
winterized with anti-freeze. Circulation of an anti-freeze solution through the coil
by means of the pumping module is the most fail-safe method and should be used.
Alternate methods may not completely protect the components. Damage from
freezing is not a warrantable item.
Water Condition Use a softener on your water system if local water is known to be
high in mineral content. The advantages of soft water are very beneficial: prevents
scale buildup in heater coil, cleans better with considerably less detergent, prevents
streaking on painted surfaces and glass when rinsing.
Descaling Heater Coil If heater coils develop excessive scale buildup it should be
replaced as excessive scale in heater coil will reduce efficiency of the unit and
affect recovery capacity. Descaling via use of acid may be hazardous and is thus
not recommended.
