To test the operation of the Unitherm Governor, place in hot water (over 110 °F) and watch for move- ment against spring. If there is no movement, replace unit.

TUBE CLEANING PROCEDURE (Typical)

Establish a regular inspection schedule, frequency depending on local water condition and severity of service. Do not let the tubes clog up solidly. Clean out deposits over 1/16" in thickness.

The heater must be cleaned from the rear as shown. It is preferable, however, to remove the heat exchanger and the in/out header for better visibility through the tubes and to be sure the ground-up lime dust does not get into the system.

Note that you do not remove the top panel or the heat exchanger, generally.

After reaming, mount the wire brush in place of the auger and clean out debris remaining in the tubes.

Another method is to remove the heat exchanger, ream tubes and immerse heat exchanger in non- inhibited de-scale solvent.
