Reviews of geysers Vector

Finding and eliminating causes

So, why does the gas column not turn on? A number of situations can be at fault:

1. Error in connecting pipes;
2. No draft in the chimney;
3. High sensitivity protective relay;
4. Discharged ignition batteries;
5. Weak water pressure or its complete absence;
6. Filter clogging;
7. Membrane deformation.

Let's consider all the listed reasons in more detail and analyze effective methods for their elimination:

Reason number 1: an error in the connection of pipes

The water heater protection system itself shuts off the gas supply if errors are made in connecting pipes. To prevent this, simply follow a simple and understandable scheme:

Reason number 2: lack of draft in the chimney

Due to the pollution of the chimney as a result of the accumulation of soot or the ingress of construction debris into it, the vector of movement of combustion products changes up to the opposite. This poses two dangers:

The returning mixture of carbon monoxide and air extinguishes the burner
. As a result, the protection system is activated, and the operation of the gas water heater is blocked;

The returning mixture of carbon monoxide with air penetrates into living quarters
. This option is even worse, as it poses a danger to the health and even the life of the household. It is possible in the case when the force of the "overturned" thrust is not enough to put out the fire.

Let's figure out what to do in the described situation:

A photo	Description
	First check, if someone installed a satellite dish above the exit of the ventilation shaft. This may be quite enough to create a reverse thrust effect. In this case, the problem can be solved by negotiating with neighbors without calling chimney cleaning specialists.
	Call specialists to clean the ventilation duct. If no external factors interfere with the release of combustion products, then the reason for the lack of draft is clearly a clogged chimney.You can try to clean it yourself, but there is a danger that you, without the appropriate experience, will damage the neighboring branches with your actions.

Reason number 3: high sensitivity of the protective relay

The gas column lights up, after which it soon fades out? In this case, the problem is most likely a too sensitive relay, in which overheating protection is triggered. There are two options for solving the problem:

Temporary
. You should open the window to lower the temperature in the room;

Radical
. The only way to fix the problem is to replace the relay.

Reason #4: Dead Ignition Batteries

Another reason why the main burner does not light up may be dead batteries. This can be determined by the idle clicks of the piezo ignition element when hot water is turned on.

It is also worth noting that the problem described applies exclusively to water heaters equipped with an automatic switching system.

Reason number 5: not enough strong water flow or its complete absence

In order for the gas column to turn on, there must be a pressure of water of a certain strength. If it is too weak, then the unit will not turn on. In this case, you should first clarify the source of the problem by opening the cold water tap in the bathroom:

If the water supply level is weak there too
, means that the matter is in the city water supply system. There's nothing you can do here, you'll have to wait;

If the liquid runs normally
, most likely, the column itself is clogged.

In the second case, you can call the wizard, or you can try to clean the device yourself. The instruction looks like this:

1. Shutting off the gas supply;
2. We unscrew the pipes;

1. Removing the gas column from the hinges;

1. Set it upside down on the table;
2. Pour inside a special cleaning liquid with a syringe. The price of such a mixture is not very high, and you can buy it at any specialized store;
3. We leave the unit for a couple of hours.

Reason #6: Dirty Filters

Another reason for the column to malfunction may be filter contamination. Scale, rust and other insoluble impurities clog the grates over time, and they need to be cleaned. In this case, we are talking not about one object, but about several at once:

A photo	Name and location of the filter
	Water node in the column itself. In some cases, it can be cleaned in the manner described above, in others it will be necessary to disassemble the device and clean the grate manually or completely change it.
	Coarse filter. It is located on the pipe supplying cold water to the water heater.
	Faucet filter.

Reason #7: Membrane Deformation

The geyser also does not work in the event of cracks, ruptures or other deformations on the membrane. In this case, you need to replace it.

Advantages of water heaters "Vector"

The technique has several advantages, which made it very popular among Russian buyers.

Price

Not everyone can spend more than 10 thousand rudders on such a device, and it is quite difficult to do without it in a country house or in a private house. The brand "Vector" does not have models more expensive than 4 thousand rubles - despite this, the equipment is quite high-quality and versatile.

Design

The equipment looks stylish and discreet. The column will not attract attention, and sometimes even emphasize the interior. The manufacturer also took care of the compact dimensions of the equipment.In the event of a breakdown, the owner can always find the necessary spare parts that will be inexpensive and extend the life of the device.

Control

All models are equipped with a simple and convenient control system. It consists of two switches. The first regulates the gas supply, and the second is responsible for the amount of water entering the heat exchanger. There is also a technique with a third switch for the Winter/Summer function. The first program activates all sections of the burner. The “Summer” program, on the contrary, turns off some of the sections - a plus for savings.

First signs of contamination

The heat exchanger is one of the main parts of the gas column. It is a set of tubes located above the burner, in which the liquid must flow and heat up evenly. The first sign that scale has accumulated on the walls of the pipes is a weak pressure or slow heating of the water.

Specialists and experienced column owners identify several more characteristic signs indicating that the water heater needs urgent cleaning:

1. The device spontaneously turns off during operation or does not turn on at all. If problems with the uninterrupted supply of gas and water are excluded, then the cause of such shutdowns may be the accumulation of burning on the ignition element.
2. The device overheats and the thermal sensor is activated, turning off the device. Frequent operation of the protection indicates the presence of a malfunction. To normalize the work, it is recommended to clean the pipes from scale, the presence of which prevents the normal cooling of the system.

We figured out the signs that indicate the presence of pollution in the gas appliance. Further in the article we will talk about how to clean the gas water heater at home in order to restore its functionality.

Causes of breakdowns and their elimination

Despite the simplicity of design, unpretentiousness in operation, the flow heater is not immune from breakdowns. If the geyser of the Vector brand does not turn on, do not panic. There can be several reasons for the problem, and most of them can be fixed on your own.

Problem # 1 - lack of traction in the column

The lack of draft indicates that the products of combustion cannot be quickly removed from the room. This poses a danger to users, so the sensor turns off the geyser.

Sometimes the burner ignites, but immediately goes out. This can happen when there is not enough air to burn the gas - the flame goes out due to a lack of oxygen to support combustion.

In any case, you first need to check the draft by bringing a burning match to a special hole on the column body. If the flame is directed inward, then the chimney is working normally, the combustion products will be quickly removed, and the cause of the malfunction is different. If the flame remains motionless, directed upwards or towards the user, then it is worth carefully inspecting the chimney, cleaning it.

Soot gets into the air along with the products of combustion. It gradually settles on the walls of the chimney, narrowing its opening. As a result, traction is lost. The problem is solved by thorough cleaning of the chimney

Problem #2 - Difficulties with water pressure

Another reason why the household geyser of the Vector brand does not ignite may be the low pressure of cold water or its complete absence.Before you start looking for a solution to the problem, you need to make sure that cold water is supplied without interruption, evaluate its pressure. If there is insufficient water pressure in the system, the solution may be to install a pump or replace old, clogged pipes.

If there are no problems with the water supply, it is worth moving on to inspecting the column. The solution to the issue may be to adjust the water supply to the column. To do this, the corresponding valve must be fully opened.

Another cause of insufficient water pressure in the column is a clogged filter. To inspect it, it is necessary to shut off the water and gas supply with valves, unscrew the nuts, rinse the grid. If cleaning fails, the filter will have to be replaced.

It will take a few minutes to inspect the filter. However, in some cases, one flush is not enough, a complete replacement of the part is required.

Problem #3 - insufficient gas pressure

Sometimes the gas pressure is not enough to ignite the flow column, its normal operation. However, this problem cannot be solved on its own. You need to contact the gas service.

Problem # 4 - no ignition when turned on

The presence of an electric ignition system ensures the comfort of using the gas column, eliminates the use of a wick that is constantly on fire. However, it is this element that can cause a malfunction of the device.

When the tap is opened, automatic ignition should work. This action is accompanied by a characteristic crack. If the ignition does not work or the spark is too weak to ignite the gas, the column will not be able to connect. Replacing the batteries will solve this problem.

Batteries are required for the smooth operation of an instantaneous water heater.When the batteries are discharged, the electric ignition does not work, the column does not turn on

Problem # 5 - the presence of blockages in the tubes

Water and gas pass through the gas column Vector in the process of operation. The use of filters allows you to clean them from unnecessary impurities. However, the presence of blockages can cause the device to simply not turn on.

However, the filter is not always able to bring the water to an ideal state. Soluble salts get inside the heater together with the liquid, settle on the walls of the heat exchanger. As a result, the patency of thin tubes is impaired.

Specialists remove scale with the help of specialized reagents. A home master can deal with it using a solution of citric acid or vinegar. To clean the heat exchanger, you need to remove it, place it in a warm solution with the addition of vinegar. You can also use special purchased products - "chemistry" designed to clean heat exchangers.

It is better to entrust the elimination of blockage of the heat exchanger to qualified craftsmen, since the tubes are fragile and, in the absence of specialized skills, they are easy to damage

We discussed in detail about cleaning and repairing the heat exchanger in the next article.

Gas Block Diaphragm

Turning on the geyser is impossible if there is a membrane rupture

made of elastic and durable rubber: it, depending on the water pressure, controls the flow of gas into the product.

Repair is difficult - finding a replacement diaphragm, which is made of durable and elastic rubber, is very problematic in retail, and their cost at dealers is very high.

Advice! To replace a torn membrane, a silicone product is suitable - such a part is more reliable and lasts much longer.

In addition to the diaphragm, you should check the entire gas block of a running column, there are many parts, and each one can break. For disassembly and subsequent repair, there are many recommendations that can be found on the Internet.

Column device and principle of operation

Any flowing gas water heater has approximately the same device. The principle of operation is that water passes through the pipes of the heat exchanger, where it is heated. After that, it enters the faucet. Such devices are mounted directly into the water supply system. One or two water intake points can be connected to them.

"Vector" is just as simple. But all its details perform important functions.

1 - lining; 2 - frame; 3 - water-gas unit; 4 - water regulator knob; 5- gas regulator knob; 6- electromagnetic valve; 7- burner with manifold; 8- heat exchanger; 9- water overheating sensor; 10- thrust sensor; 11 - gas outlet device (GOD); 12- electrode for electronic ignition of the burner; 13 - ionization flame control electrode; 14- battery compartment; 15- electronic control unit; 16 - indicator of digital temperature of hot water; 17- viewing window; 18 - microswitch; 19 - inlet pipe of the water block (water supply) with a filter; 20 - inlet pipe of the gas block (gas supply) with a filter; 21 - water outlet; 22 - safety valve, 23 - hot water temperature sensor

The heat exchanger for the geyser is the most important detail. It consists of hollow tubes through which water circulates. Due to the vapors from the burning gas, it heats up.

The heat exchanger for the geyser "Vector" is made of copper, so the liquid heats up quickly.

Any gas water heater "Vector" has the function of electric ignition.It is convenient and safe, as there is no constant igniter.
After opening the tap with water, the water-gas unit is turned on. With sufficient water pressure, the gas column water assembly opens the valve and provides gas supply.

Fuel is burned in a gas burner.

After that, the combustion products enter the gas outlet. If the geyser is chimneyless, there is no need to connect it to a common chimney. But in the absence of traction, the sensor immediately turns off the device.

An important detail is the overheating sensor. It does not allow the column to overheat

A temperature sensor is installed on the heat exchanger; when the water is heated to 800, it turns off the device.

A membrane is needed to ensure safe operation. It turns off the device when the water tap is closed.

Some models have additional sensors, a pressure relief valve.

Other malfunctions of flow heaters

In addition to the problems listed above, speaker owners have to deal with the following problems:

• weak sparking, sometimes single discharges slip, the gas does not flare up;
• ignition is accompanied by strong cotton;
• after closing the DHW valve, the burner continues to work until the electromagnet cuts off the fuel supply due to strong heating (at the command of the sensor);
• spontaneous ignition after connecting to a power source;
• insufficient heating;
• water is flowing from the water heater.

Problems with sparking give rise to pops - gas has time to accumulate in the combustion chamber before a sufficiently powerful discharge is formed. If the spark remains weak, the fuel-air mixture ignites when it reaches a high concentration, which is accompanied by a micro-explosion.There have been cases when pops damaged the heat exchanger, violated the seals and the normal contact in the electrical circuits of the sensors.

Pollution Prevention

The appearance of scale in the column is associated with the deposition of salts, as well as constantly high temperatures. In order for the pipes to become clogged more slowly, and cleaning is required as rarely as possible, it is necessary to monitor the temperature regime, choosing the optimal degree of heating.

Often scale accumulates due to the fault of the owner himself, who heats the water in the appliance to a temperature above +80 ℃. +45 ℃ is usually enough for washing dishes, and even less for taking a shower. Therefore, in order to disassemble the column as rarely as possible, it is necessary to adjust it to a temperature of no more than +50 ℃.

You can also fight scale in pipes with a water filter. Such a device retains harmful salts, preventing them from contacting the gas column elements. However, the cleanliness of the filter also needs to be monitored, replacing it with a new one in a timely manner.

Another way is to install an electric softener on the water pipe. It sends special impulses that, acting on the water, prevent the appearance of scale.

Knowing how to properly clean the geyser, as well as following the recommendations above, you can significantly increase the life of the device. This, in turn, guarantees an uninterrupted supply of hot water and significant savings in the repair and maintenance of the device.

Device maintenance

For a clear and trouble-free operation of the gas column, it is necessary to carry out certain actions in a timely manner.These include visual inspection, maintenance.

In order to avoid the occurrence of fire hazard situations, monitor the condition of the ignition group and the main burner, clean them in a timely manner from accumulated soot, make sure that the gaps in the heat exchanger are not clogged with soot.

The case itself must be cleaned of dust using a soapy solution. It is strictly forbidden to put anything on the device or hang it up.

Maintenance should be carried out once a year, it includes:

1. Burner cleaning.
2. Cleaning or replacing filters, water and gas.
3. Cleaning the heat exchanger
4. Gaskets also need to be replaced.
5. Lubrication of all moving parts.
6. Checking the health of the traction controller and water sensor.

Before each use, check:

1. There should be no smell of gas in the room, if there is a leak, immediately open a window to ventilate, and call the gas service.
2. Correct chimney system.

Disadvantages of gas water heaters Vector

Most users are sure that for little money they get a super unit that is equipped with all the technical characteristics and functions. However, this is absolutely not the case. It should be understood that due to the use of the most economical version of Chinese spare parts, such a column will not be able to serve for many years, such as, for example, similar models in a more expensive price segment. In some cases, after some time, alternative options for replacing components may be needed.

In addition, although the walls of the heat exchanger are made of copper, they have a very thin layer of it, so over time they can burn out, unable to withstand high temperatures.As mentioned above, the column turns off only after the water reaches a temperature of 80 degrees. Therefore, the walls become thinner over time, as a result of which the apparatus becomes unusable.

In fact, there are exactly as many opinions as there are users. Some owners consider this speaker to be the best purchase, while others consider the models of this manufacturer not the most successful. In any case, until a person tries to use it on his own, he will not be able to give an objective assessment.

Here you will learn:

• Geyser Vector JSD 20-W
• Geyser Vector Lux Eco 20-1
• Geyser Vector LUX Eco 20-2
• Geyser JSD 12-W
• Geyser Vector JSD 11-N
• Geyser Vector JSD 20-G

Gas column Vector is a budget option for those who save money in their wallet and do not recognize the need for additional functionality. Therefore, speakers from this brand have become so widespread. Prices for models with good performance start at 6,000 rubles, which is a good indicator. What are the advantages of Vector gas water heaters?

• Affordable price - this is really one of the most inexpensive gas water heaters on the market for water heating equipment;
• The simplicity of the design of the gas column - ensures maintainability;
• Large model range - a fairly wide selection of speakers is presented to the choice of buyers.

Lovers of good design will also rejoice - especially for the most demanding customers, models with a glass front surface, on which various patterns are located, have been developed. These speakers look just great.As for the quality of the equipment, there are small complaints about it, as evidenced by the reviews below about the Vector geysers.

Next, we will publish reviews of people who have received Vector gas water heaters of certain models at their disposal. Along with the reviews, the advantages and disadvantages of the speakers are described.

Lineup of geysers Vector

Speaking of geysers Vector, the following models can be noted.

1. JSD This model became popular a few years ago. First of all, the great demand is due to the low price for such devices, which is set within 4,000 rubles. It is also worth noting the convenient small size. Such a gas water heater can be used even in a small room. Equipping with a digital display has greatly simplified the procedure for use, as well as automatic ignition. Geyser Vektor JSD 20 is available in several colors: white, gold and silver.

2. JSD 11-N is a great solution for small spaces. It is ideal for installation and use in the kitchen or small bathroom. There is an automatic flame extinction sensor and protection against overheating of the heat exchanger.

3. To date, the company has decided to go further and has developed a new gas column model called Lux ​​Eco. This variant is equipped with the same features as previous models, and also has an improved security system, which reduces the risk of overheating of the device. The combustion chamber in this device is water-cooled. The Vector Lux water heater control system allows you to independently adjust and set the desired temperature, there is a digital display.These models are designed taking into account possible pressure drops in the water main. The outer case has a beautiful outer mirror surface with different patterns, it looks very neat and stylish. A water heater of this model has a standard package: the gas column device itself, flexible pipes, fasteners, a faucet, a shower head, instructions.

In the budget price category, Vector gas water heaters are the best option for instantaneous water heaters. They are easy to operate, have a good security system and stylish design. Since not the highest quality Chinese components are used for production (which can significantly reduce the price of this equipment), the service life without repair is not very long. In any case, it will not be difficult to find components for restoring the efficiency of the gas column.

Disadvantages of water heaters of this company

Despite many advantages, the Vector instantaneous water heater is not a very reliable and durable device. Many parts quickly fail, there are also no modern functions that are in expensive devices. The only good thing is that spare parts for the Vector gas column can be bought in any city.

The most common failure is the burnout of the heat exchanger tubes. They are made of thin copper, so they burn out over time. Many users note that, despite the fact that there is a water temperature sensor, it is difficult to set the desired indicators to change it. There is no automatic adjustment for water pressure. It can be attributed to the minuses the need for frequent replacement of batteries.

Traction violation

If there is no stable thrust, then the product simply cannot function normally - there is no ventilation, the flame goes out due to lack of oxygen. The new models are equipped with thrust sensor

, which controls the exhaust of combustion products - if it is absent, then the gas does not ignite. This method is used to protect the product.

Advice! The easiest way to check for draft is to bring a lit match to the technological hole on the front panel of the gas column. If the flame deviates into the product, then the thrust is normal.

When the draft does not work, it is necessary to inspect the chimney, but the user himself can only check the collector that goes to the wall - then the sphere of specialists in the maintenance of ventilation and chimneys, you need to call the city service.

Models

Geysers Vektor are characterized by a not too wide model range.

JSD

A model that became popular a few years ago. Its popularity is achieved due to the low price, which does not exceed four thousand rubles. This device is compact in size, so it is ideal for rooms with small dimensions. Thanks to the digital display, the process of using the column is quite simple. Vektor JSD 20 is available in several colors: white, gold and silver.

JSD 11-N

Suitable for installation in a small dining room or bathroom. It is equipped with an automatic sensor that controls the extinction of the flame and is aimed at protecting the heat exchanger from overheating.

Lux Eco

It is considered the newest and most modern model of Vektor gas water heaters. This model functions similarly to the previous two, but is equipped with a more advanced security system. The combustion chamber is water-cooled.Thanks to the modernized control system, the user has the opportunity to independently regulate and set the temperature regime. This model is prepared for main pressure drops. The appearance of the device is characterized by attractiveness, which is achieved by the presence of a mirror panel. "Lux Eco" - attractive, neat and interestingly designed household appliances as standard.

Feedback from homeowners indicates that the operation of the speakers is simple and long. Special automatic elements make her work even easier and more productive. The advantage for the consumer is the built-in clock and informative display. People who bought this equipment note its good power, which is enough to provide more than one point of water intake.

Prevention of scale formation

Hard water is not the only cause of scale build-up inside heat exchanger tubes. For its appearance, not only the salts contained in the water are needed, but also a high heating temperature. The stronger the gas burns, the more intense the solid precipitate inside the device. A temperature of 80 degrees or higher is considered critical.

Obviously, such strong heating is not needed for domestic use. For a shower, 40-42 degrees is enough, and 45 degrees is enough to wash even the dirtiest dishes. An automatic washing machine will heat the water up to 95 degrees, if necessary, but the gas water heater does not participate in this process.

Therefore, if hot water constantly has to be diluted with cold water, it is worth reconsidering the settings of the geyser according to the heating temperature. Some amateur craftsmen drill a gas column igniter. This is done in order to increase the rate of heating of the water flow.

In older models, this alteration allows you to get rid of the need to kindle and tune the device every time you turn it on. Finally, a drilled igniter is needed so that the gas ignites even with a very weak pressure of the water flow.

In this case, a very dangerous situation can arise when a small amount of water in the heat exchanger boils and turns into a gaseous form. As a result, the pressure in the heat exchanger will rise sharply and simply break it.

Of course, gas workers consider such intervention dangerous, and manufacturers refuse to fulfill warranty obligations for devices with such alterations. To improve the pressure in the system, you can pick up and install a conventional circulation device or a booster pump. And the quality of the water supply will improve, and the devices will not suffer.

1 Benefits of the unit

The Chinese product is very well thought out in the security system. The masters took into account all the details of the operation of the gas column. The security system prevents the column from burning without water supply, it automatically turns off when the column overheats, or if the water boils.

It was also provided for automatic shutdown of the device in the absence of chimney draft. The geyser "Vector jsd20 w" was equipped with a built-in automatic electric ignition. There are also many more positive aspects when using this product.

If you stopped by looking at the Lux Eco vector geyser model, then such models are equipped with clocks on displays that provide information about the temperature of the water in the tank. This is a very handy feature. And the installation of a geyser also does not require beyond knowledge.

"Vector Lux" has good power, which can easily provide several points of water intake, such as in the kitchen and bath

And this is all important. It is worth noting that this product is easy to operate.

Geyser Vector in private home

An important point is the price of repairing the gas column Vector. You can also purchase the unit at any heating appliance store at an affordable price in any color option. Many consumers liked the winter-summer function, but many users have the opinion that this mode is no different from each other. The control unit of a geyser Vector is convenient and bright. In stores where they sell the Vector Lux gas water heater, there are always spare parts for it, as well as good after-sales service.

A qualified master will always explain and find the cause of the breakdown of this product. The prices for spare parts and cleaning of geysers Vector are below average, which allows you to make repairs, and you won’t spend much on it.

2 Disadvantages of gas water heaters Vektor

When using the device, the most common malfunctions of the Vector geyser are weak batteries that provide automatic ignition - they should be changed often.

In this case, you need to use expensive high-quality batteries. Also, the downside is that the protection system is set too rigidly in the device. Normal operation requires stable water pressure and good water flow.

There are shortcomings in the change in the temperature of the water at the outlet, and this happens if there are large pressure drops. In these cases, automatic temperature control is used, while the Vector geyser does not have it.

It looks like a geyser Vektor

Manually setting such settings will be difficult. The most common breakdowns are:

• geyser does not ignite Vector;
• no spark on gas column Vector.

These are the most common breakdowns. Breakdowns are also less common, like a cracked heat exchanger tube. The device of the geyser Vector is not convenient, since when removing the heat exchange unit for cleaning the unit, you will encounter many difficulties.

It should be noted that not every store has a complete list of spare parts for the unit. There are also cases when even GORGAZ refused to repair this unit, since the employees are not familiar with the device of the dispenser.

They demanded a diagram of the Vector gas column, but the consumer often did not have it. A significant drawback of this unit is that with prolonged use, the process of turning it on often breaks down. An explosion may occur due to untimely ignition of the gas. At the same time, consumers experience fear when turning on the column. If your Vector gas column does not turn on, then it is better to call a qualified craftsman.

If you listen to numerous reviews, you can come to the conclusion that the Vector geyser is not as easy to operate as it seems at first glance. Such a device requires an understanding of several basic principles of this unit. Even experienced professionals have a question, how to disassemble the Vector geyser?

2.1 The device and principle of operation of the column Vector

The design of the unit is very simple.In principle, it is no different from its counterparts. Comprises:

• Main burner;
• ignition;
• Heat exchanger.

The geyser Vector Lux consists of a painted metal frame, which is very similar to a conventional kitchen cabinet. The above elements are placed inside this frame. From the bottom of the frame there are two pipes. One for gas supply, the other for water.

Geyser device Vektor

The principle of operation of the unit is also simple. All models have an automatic type of ignition. This means that the column turns on after you turn the rotary valve.

After you open the rotary valve, a valve is activated in the column system, which slowly passes gas into the pilot burner, and then into the main burner. After that, the gas burns out and the column releases heat and energy to quickly heat cold water. Cold water passes through a spiral faucet (heat exchanger) and already hot water is supplied to the faucet. It should be noted that the Vector geyser can work without a chimney, and this affects the low cost of installation.

Conclusions and useful video on the topic

An interesting option for flushing the gas column can be found in this material:

The procedure for cleaning the heat exchanger without dismantling is shown here:

This video shows an interesting experiment on dissolving scale in electrolyte, citric acid and vinegar. Although it is necessary to take into account not only the effect of chemistry on the hard sediment, but also on the material from which the heat exchanger is made:

Any geyser needs periodic cleaning. If maintenance is done correctly, the appliance will work long and efficiently.

Would you like to talk about how you personally cleaned a gas instantaneous water heater? Do you have information on the topic of the article that will be useful to site visitors? Please write comments in the block below, ask questions and post photos on the topic of the article.

Gas-powered devices require timely and thorough maintenance. To clean the geyser from combustion products and scale, which inevitably accumulate on the walls and reduce the performance of the device, it is not necessary to call the masters at home, almost all cleaning steps can be implemented independently.
