WARNING
SCALE BUILD-UP/EXPLOSION HAZARD
•
Failure to properly maintain the coil can result in a
stream explosion.
•
Scale or lime build-up will act as an insulator and
decrease coil efficiency.
•
Weakling of the coil tube due to hot spots can result
in a coil rupture.
CHEMICAL EXPOSURE HAZARD
•
Always wear properly rated safety goggles when
descaling the coil.
•
Always wear rubber gloves when handling coil
cleaning chemical.

Turn on the circulating pump to begin circulating the
coil cleaning solution.
7.
Run the circulating pump for 1 to 3 hours (follow coil
cleaner manufacturing instructions), recirculating the
coil cleaning solution. CAUTION: Do not run the
pressure washer or the burner.
8.
Dispose of the cleaning solution where it is not
harmful to animals or the environment. Follow the
coil cleaner manufacturers disposal instructions.
9.
Fill the 5-gallon bucket with fresh water.

Place the end of Supply Hose B back into the 5-
gallon bucket with fresh water.
12.
Turn on the circulating pump to begin circulating the
fresh water.
13.
Run the circulating pump for 5 minutes, recirculating
the fresh water.
14.
Repeat steps 11-15 at least 3 times to ensure all
remaining coil cleaning residue has been flushed
out with fresh water.
15.
Reinstall the outlet coil quick connect nipple fitting to
the coil outlet.
16.
Reinstall the inlet coil swivel fitting to the coil inlet.
17.
