What it delivers
The Clearflow Solutions CFS-128 Tankless Descaling Solution is a descaling solution for tankless water heaters.
Descaler goes in the flush bucket in place of (or with) vinegar and is circulated through the heat exchanger by a flush pump.
Makers differ here. Rinnai's procedures use white vinegar and say never to use chemical solutions; follow your own heater's manual.
From the listing: model: CFS-128; solution: biodegradable.
The listing gives dimensions of 6 x 5 x 1.5 inches; 10.78 pounds and a weight of 4.89 kg.
