SERVICING THE HEAT EXCHANGER
In case of particularly hard water, it is necessary to perform the cleaning of the exchanger periodically. This type of cleaning is
performed by means of a 3-way valve installed in the appliance, used to circulate a descaling detergent. Use detergents suitable
for limestone cleaning only, not aggressive towards materials such as steel, copper and brass. Follow the instructions below for a
thorough cleaning.
IMPORTANT:
The operation must be performed only by our authorized service centres.
1.
Isolate the appliance electrically.
2.
Close the shut-off valves installed in the circuit external to the device.
3.
Unscrew the plugs from the 3-way valve assemblies as shown in the picture on
the left.
4.
Connect the appliance for the exchanger cleaning to the G 3/4 "connections
instead of just removed caps.
5.
Turn the lever 90 ° as shown in the picture below. In this way the flow is deviated in the indicated outlet.
6.
Start the cleaning cycle for the necessary time.
7.
At the end of the cleaning cycle, you must perform a thorough rinsing of the
heat exchanger to remove any residual detergent used during the cleaning.
8.
After the rinse cycle of the exchanger, close the 3-way valves with the caps
removed earlier.
9.
Return the levers 90 ° to the initial position.
10.
Reopen the shut-off valves.
11.
Make sure there are no leaks along the system.
