WATERFALL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The waterfall should be drained and cleaned every 3-4 months, possibly more depending on the quality of the water. The waterfall surface can be cleaned using a warm soap and water mixture. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners on the surface of the stainless steel panel or it will permanently scratch the surface. Any wiping motion should be done in the direction of the grain. If small scratches do occur, they can be blended out by gentle rubbing in the direction of the grain with a Scotchbrite pad.

The water should be completely flushed and drained from the system - switch the valve to the purge setting, and run the pump to pump the water out. Refill the tank, run the water through the fountain for 3 minutes and purge again. If calcium or hard water deposits are forming on the panel or anywhere else in the system, cycle CLR solution through the system until the deposits are removed then purge the system a few times with water.
If there are spots on the panel that dry out, check that there are no blocked ports in the
manifold tube. Remove the three nuts that secure the tube cover, and remove the cover. Remove the tube by flexing it out in the centre. This will allow the ends to pull out. Poke the holes out with an opened paper clip, and then flush the tube with water. Clean the angled surface that the manifold sprays onto with liquid TSP (or TSP substitute). It is critical that this surface is extremely clean. Install the tube back into the unit, with the ports aiming straight down and refill with water.
Install the tube cover and test the unit.
