As we all know, the working principle of electric water heater is not complicated, and the workload of built-in electric heating rod is relatively large. In fact, this is the same as the rapid heating commonly used in our lives. Tap water directly enters the electric water heater without treatment, and scale will be produced in the heating process over time, and it will accumulate more and more with time. After more than half a year, you will find that the heating rod has been wrapped in layers of scale.
In addition, city tap water is treated with chlorine. When it enters the water inlet pipe of the electric water heater through the tap water pipe, it will form green flocs on the pipe wall, similar to the generation of algae. Since the water inlet pipe of the water heater will be so dirty, you can imagine how dirty the liner will be if it is not cleaned thoroughly for a long time.
As a reference, it can be found that although the use of electric water heaters is very convenient, if they are not cleaned regularly, they will not only shorten the service life of water heaters, but also increase many safety hazards, especially after the water quality is polluted, which will have a substantial impact on skin health. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the heating rod and water tank of the water heater regularly. After all, the current electric water heaters are equipped with corresponding cleaning and blowdown functions, and the pollution level can be reduced as long as they are operated according to the diagram.
