It&#8217;s also called an instant water heater. These heaters heat up the water \u201con demand\u201d. This means the water&#8217;s temperature rises only when a hot water tap opens anywhere in the house. The system ignites and the flame heats the passageways of running water. Providing instant hot water. For installation and a basic comparison between a tankless and tanked water heater refer to the youtube link.<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/waterfiltersadvisor.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">WaterFiltersAdvisor published a post<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> about tankless water heater maintenance. Though these systems normally last very long, to keep it running smoothly it is always a good option to know a few simple tricks. This will not only increase the life expectancy of the product upto 25-30 years but also sustains its quality so you can use it with its full capacity.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Some common issues that can occur over time are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mineral Build-Up<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Air Supply or Exhaust Blockage<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ignition Failure<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Flame Failure<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Mineral Build-Up:\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/unnamed-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3562\" src=\"https:\/\/gardenadvice.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/unnamed-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"262\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the areas where <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hard_water\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">hard water<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> consistency is higher, minerals like calcium and magnesium start depositing on the inner walls or in water pipes inside the heater. This can cause blockage of water. Bits and pieces of these minerals can travel through the pipes along with the hot water and cause problems in the showers or kitchen faucets.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another way to cope with this situation is a method called Water Heater Flush. This process is suggested be done once a year to maintain the functionality of the heater.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">FYI, the positioning of heater valves may differ depending on the brand you are using. However, the mechanism is the same for tankless water heaters and the same process is applicable.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Things you need:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Undiluted White Vinegar (3-4 Gallons)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B001DEMD9I\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B001DEMD9I&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=matrisandtheg-20\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Submersible Pump<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Standard Sized Bucket (for flushed water discharge)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B001G0MFT2\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B001G0MFT2&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=matrisandtheg-20\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hose Kit<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (Use the attached link to purchase the water hos or choose the one that is suitable for your tankless heater)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Plyer (to help unthreading the valves caps or the filter chamber)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Instead of the items listed above, you can also purchase EZ Flush Kit to carry on with the DIY process.

The valves need to be perpendicular to the pipes. That\u2019s when the valve is closed. These valves let the cold water (blue valve) enter the heating tank and the hot water (red water) is then released and distributed to the house outlet.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>Step 3:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Open the flush kit\u2019s valves to drain the water from inside the heater tank.<\/span><br \/>\n<i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If the flush kit is not installed under the heater, call the plumber to have these installed as descaling is not possible without these.<\/span><\/i><br \/>\n<b>Step 4: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Check the prefilter for any kind of debris. If the filter needs cleaning refer to a 3 minutes<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XivWgBR1wWo\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Youtube video<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. If you find no debris in the filter, plug the filter back to its place.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>Step 5:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Fill the bucket with the white vinegar. The acidity can be almost 5%. (In case you are using the chemical solution for the cleaning process instead of vinegar, the following step is a must. Make sure to flush the solution out of the tank thoroughly otherwise it will get mixed in the water distributed inside the house. The<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M3WzxW0hv9s\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> video<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> demonstrates this process efficiently).<\/span><br \/>\n<b>Step 6: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Place the circulation pump in the bucket. Try to place a block inside the bucket so that only the base of the pump submerged in the vinegar.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>Step 7:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Connect the hose of the pump to the cold side of the flush valve first so the vinegar passes through the filter first cleaning it thoroughly. Connect the hose kit to the hot water valve and drop the loose end back into the bucket. Make sure the hose heads are threaded securely to the valve to avoid leakage. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(This circling process will loosen the deposits from the inside and the circulation pressure is going to push the waste material out).<\/span><\/i><br \/>\n<b>Step 8:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Turn the pump on and let the vinegar circulate the system for almost an hour to an hour and a half.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>Step 9:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> After approximately an hour, turn the pump off. Change the hose to the alternative valves i.e. pump hose attached to the hot water valve and hose kit attached to the cold side valve. Leave the pump running for another hour. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(The circulation of solution instead of vinegar takes about 30 minutes, which is half the time vinegar takes to clean the tank completely).<\/span><\/i><br \/>\n<b>Step 10: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once both the valves go through the same process. Remove the kit hose and the pump hose from the hot and cold valves. Close these flush valves with their caps.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>Step 11: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now turn the hot and cold water supply valves open and close the flush kits valves.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>Step 12:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Turn the gas valve on. Plus the switch back to the power and switch it on too.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To watch the complete process refer to the<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M3WzxW0hv9s\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Youtube video<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><b>Conclusion:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This process takes approximately 4 hours. Including the initial preparations and the exchanging of hoses in the midst of the process.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is a very simple process and one person carries it with ease. Heavy duty tools are not required.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The supply items purchased are usable multiple times. These will help you maintain the heating system you currently have for many years to come.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When it&#8217;s time to replace the old system with a new tankless heater, usage of the tools again is possible to keep the heating system running efficiently.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When using the solution instead of vinegar, be extra careful. Wear gloves to protect your skin from any kind of interaction with the chemical.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Use water softener to reduce the depositing of minerals in<\/span><b> your heater tank<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.
