bristle brush. Use care not to damage coating on the exterior
of the secondary heat exchanger. Use a vacuum to remove
loose soot from surfaces and inner chamber.
8.
The heat exchanger can be removed by
disconnecting all water piping to the bypass and
secondary heat exchanger and sliding the heat
exchanger towards the rear of the appliance. Once
the heat exchanger is removed, a garden hose can
be used to wash the tubes to ensure that all surface deposits
are removed from the exterior of the heat
exchanger surfaces.
