FAQs

How often should I clean the calc-collector?

Cleaning frequency depends on water hardness and usage, but generally, cleaning every 2-4 weeks is recommended.

How do I know when to replace the calc-collector?

Replace the collector when cleaning no longer improves steam performance, or if it's visibly damaged or clogged.

Can I use tap water?

While the calc-collector helps, it's generally recommended to use filtered or distilled water to minimize limescale buildup.

Where can I buy a replacement?

Replacements can be purchased from various retailers specializing in appliance parts.

What happens if I don't use a calc-collector?

Without a calc-collector, limescale can build up rapidly, leading to reduced steam, blockages, and potential damage to your iron.

Troubleshooting

Reduced steam output.

Remove and clean the calc-collector. If heavily scaled, replace it.

Brown spots on clothes.

Check the calc-collector for deposits. Clean or replace it.

Iron not producing steam.

Ensure the calc-collector is properly installed. Check for blockages and clean or replace the collector.

Installation

Cleaning
