The air source water heater will produce scale during heating, which will not only affect the insulation effect, but also corrode the water tank and shorten the service life of the air source water heater. Therefore, it needs regular cleaning and maintenance to make the air source water heater work better and last longer.

Why should air source water heaters be cleaned regularly?

Three important influences!

▼

lReduce thermal conductivity and increase energy consumption

Scaling will lead to poor thermal conductivity of water heaters, and scaling of collector tubes will seriously affect water heating. Hard scaling will reduce the conversion rate of electrothermal energy or even fail, resulting in increased power and increased electricity cost.

lDestroy the water cycle and affect the use

If the water pipe scales, the cross-sectional area of circulation will be reduced, which will increase the flow resistance of water circulation. In severe cases, it will completely block the passage, destroy the water circulation and affect daily water use.

lThe service life of the water heater is shortened

The scale adsorbed on the heating surface of the water heater will lead to the gradual corrosion of the heating surface, the operation of the equipment under load, the service life of the water heater will be shortened, and the economic cost of user maintenance and replacement will be increased.

So, how long does it usually take for air source to be cleaned? Generally speaking, the water tank can be cleaned within half a year, but before cleaning, cut off the power supply, close the water inlet valve, let it stand for a period of time and then clean it with clean water. Do not add corrosive cleaning liquid, which will corrode the inside of the water tank and lead to service failure.
