Flush the plate heat exchangers.
For this purpose, pump one of the above mentioned cleaning agents
through the plate heat exchangers for an extended period of time.
After flushing, rinse the plate heat exchanger thoroughly with water

Dismantle plate heat exchanger.
Fill plate heat exchanger with one of the above mentioned cleaning
agents.
Allow the cleaning agent to act for at least six hours.
Point the connection upward to allow gases to escape.
