Ice-Making System Cleaning
Minerals that are removed from water during the freezing cycle will eventually
form a hard scaly deposit in the water system. Cleaning the system regularly
helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How oen you need to clean the system
depends upon how hard your water is. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal. (4 to
5 grains/liter), you may need to clean the system as oen as every 3 to 6 months.
