- Normal Dose Rate:
Use neat or dilute to a maximum of 25% (1:3).Instructions:
Add 15 litres of water to a clean container (min 40 litres capacity) and add 5 litres of product. For heavy deposits, or to speed up the descaling process, the product can be prepared as a 2:1 or 1:1 ratio, or neat for very stubborn deposits.- Remove the showerhead and submerge in the freshly prepared solution.
- Remove and re-submerge the shower head several times to allow fresh product to reach restricted parts.
- As the scale and debris is dissolved, the solution will effervesce until the showerhead and components are clean. Leave for a further 5 minutes to ensure optimal disinfection.
- Rinse thoroughly after required contact time. Failure to rinse thoroughly could lead to staining.

Once the shower head has been reassembled, thoroughly flush the unit for at least 1 minute before returning the unit to service.
Fresh product has a strong orange / pink colour. When the acidity of the product is depleted it turns yellow. A fresh solution should then be prepared.
If the acid solution is still active (solution colour is orange), it should be neutralised prior to disposal.
