The boiler in our van was playing up a bit, water not getting hot when on hookup etc so I looked into descaling it.
The Truma website says:
Does my Combi water tank need to be descaled or sterilised?
The water tank should be descaled from time to time.
Citric acid must be used for this purpose. This can be fed into the device via the water inlet. Leave it time to take effect and then rinse out the Combi thoroughly with fresh water.
No further info given about the amount of citric acid to be used so I just mixed the 1kg of citric acid I bought from Amazon for £4.72 with a watering can full of water and added to the 60 litres or so already in the tank and boiler.
After leaving overnight and flushing out thoroughly the citric acid seems to have done the trick and water is very hot again.
Thought maybe this might help other Funsters.
