I accidentally mixed End Zone and Releasit Hydrox in my tank.

It seems to be clogging up filters on wand/front filter on TM Quick connect. It doesn't seem to be clogging filter that is right after Fresh water tank.

I Blew out all the lines. Took Muradic acid and vinegar to the heat exchangers. Changed all solution line quick connects and blew out all solution lines with water and air.

Filters on wand and front quick connect are still getting alot of white.

The acid seemed to flush out heat exchanger residue ok.

WHAT TO DO??

I also ran 3 gallons of vinegar through whole truckmount then clear water with End Zone through whole truck mount.

What else can I run through my WHOLE system without hurting the pump.

is the Muradic acid breaking down the polymer?? Is the vinegar even phasing it???


Please and thank you.

I have gone through ALOT of quick connects, inline filters and countless hours.

What did Rick say ? ?

I wouldn't expect that much residue.

Most encap polymers would require a solvent like a well-formulated POG to dissolve the "residue".

Too many crystals :oldrolleyes:

are you sure the continued clogging is not from your repeated descaling?

I ran floor stripper through mine ( sodium hydroxide and bleach ) to prespray a cedar roof I was cleaning. Ran vinager through right after, still runs strong. this was an extra pump I threw on a small engine for spraying, not the one on my unit.
