- Wipe down external surfaces with approved disinfectant
- Check water filters for any visible debris or discoloration
- Verify temperature and pressure calibration at the beginning of each day
Weekly and Monthly Checks
Weekly Tasks
- Deep clean all external components
- Run extended sterilization cycle
- Check all connections for leaks
- Inspect tubing for wear or damage
Monthly Tasks
- Replace water filters according to manufacturer guidelines
- Descale water heating components if needed
- Verify accuracy of temperature sensors

Common Troubleshooting
Inconsistent Water Temperature
Check for mineral buildup in heating elements, verify temperature sensor connections, and ensure adequate water supply. If problems persist, calibration may be required by a certified technician.
Pressure Fluctuations
Inspect for leaks in tubing connections, verify pump operation, and check for blockages in the water line. Regular descaling can prevent pressure issues related to mineral buildup.
System Not Powering On
Verify power connections, check circuit breakers, and inspect fuses. Some systems have internal circuit protection that may need to be reset according to manufacturer instructions.
Maintenance Tip: Create a maintenance log to track all routine care, part replacements, and service visits. This documentation is valuable for warranty claims and helps identify patterns that might indicate developing issues.
