In order to remove scale and clean the macerator and the bowl, use a household descalent (like SANIFLO descaler).
As a general rule, household disinfectants and bleaches designed for a normal WC are suitable for use with a Sanifl o unit.
• Disconnect the macerator power supply.
• Pour an amount of descalent / bleach in the pan.
•
Flush the WC once.
• Leave it to stand for 1 or 2 hours.
• Re-connect the macerator power supply.
• Rinse by operating the fl ushing system twice.
Carry out the operation once every 3 months on average, but the frequency may need to be changed depending on the hardness of the water.
