When water hardness is high, following
maintenance (flushing the heat exchanger) is
recommended.
1. (For 32END5 series only)
Open a hot water fixture and confirm that the
Burner on indicator is displayed. Then close the
hot water fixture.
(For 32END6 series only)
Set the temperature more than 60°C.
2. (For 32END5 series only)
Disconnect the electrical power to the Water
Heater more than 6 minutes after the Burner
on indicator disappears and close the gas
supply valve.
(For other than 32END5 series)
Disconnect the electrical power to the Water
Heater and close the gas supply valve.
3. Close the shutoff valves on both the hot water
and cold water lines (V3 and V4).
4. Connect pump outlet hose (H1) to the cold
water line at service valve (V2).
5. Connect drain hose (H3) to service valve (V1).
6. Pour chemical product used to flush heat
exchanger into water (acid 8-10% of water
content like vinegar).
7. Place the drain hose (H3) and the hose (H2) to
the pump inlet into the cleaning solution.
8. Open both service valves (V1 and V2) on the
hot water and cold water lines.
9. Operate the pump and allow chemical product
like vinegar to circulate through the water
heater for at least 1 hour at a rate of 15 L/min.
10. Turn off the pump.
11. Rinse the chemical/water from the Water
Heater as follows:
a. Remove the free end of the drain hose (H3)
from the pail. Place in sink or outside to
drain.
b. Close service valve (V2), and open shutoff
valve (V4). Do not open shutoff valve (V3).
c. Allow water to flow through the Water
Heater for 5 minutes.
d. Close shutoff valve (V4). When unit has
finished draining remove the inline filter
at the cold water inlet and clean out any
residue. Place filter back into unit and open
valve (V4).
e. Close service valve (V1), and open shutoff
valve (V3).
12. Disconnect all hose.
13. Reconnect the electrical power to the Water
Heater and open the gas supply valve.
