PLUMBING SYSTEM CLEAN-UP
The following procedures are guidelines only but have proven successful in most instances. Under no circumstances should any procedure outlined below be followed if contrary
to the appliance manufacturer’s instructions. Should there by any questions concerning the advisability of performing a procedure, it is strongly recommended the manufactur-
er’s authorized service outlet be consulted prior to performing the procedure.
Water Heater
If
the water heater has been exposed to both iron and hardness for a long period of time, replacement of the heater tank maybe the only practical solution to prevent continued
staining originating from this source. After completing the installation of the conditioner, clean the water heater by following these instructions:
1.
Shut off energy supply to water heater and close heater inlet water valve.
2.
Drain hot water tank completely. Open inlet water valve allowing heater tank to be refilled with iron-free water. Continue
flushing until water runs clear to drain.
3.
If, after approximately 30 minutes flushing, water does NOT clear, terminate flushing operation. Refill hot water heater with
water and pour approximately 1/2 gallon of household bleach into top of heater tank. Allow bleach solution to stand in tank for
20 to 30 minutes. Flush tank.
Dishwasher
Consult owners’ handbook and follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Toilet Flush Tanks
Prior to commencing installation of the conditioner system, pour 4 to 6 ounces of resin mineral cleaner Pro-Rust Out or or other suitable cleaner such as CLR that contains a mild
acid into flush tanks and bowls and let stand. When installation is completed, flush toilets several times with conditioned water. If stains or deposits return check that lines are
connected to treated water. Repeat procedure until clear. again until water is clear at drain. Turn energy supply on.
NOTE
If water does not clear in
approximately 10 minutes,
water heater should
probably be replaced.
