How to descale a flat iron
Why carry out regular descaling of the iron
Regular descaling of the iron is essential to ensure a correct and lasting functionality of the appliance. The limestone present in the water can in fact accumulate inside the iron, clogging the ducts and reducing the steam supply capacity. This not only impairs the quality of the folds on the fabrics, but can also cause permanent damage to the iron itself. In addition, limescale can promote rust formation, further ruining the appliance. For these reasons, it is important to regularly descale the iron, using specific products or natural remedies such as white vinegar. In this way, greater iron efficiency and longer life will be guaranteed, also saving on repair or replacement costs.
How to carry out descaling
To keep the iron in excellent condition and ensure its effective functionality, it is important to regularly descale with specific products. First, rinse the iron thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove any limescale residue. Then, fill the tank with water and add the descaling product following the recommended doses. Turn on the iron and let it heat up for a few minutes, then press the steam button to let it escape and release the limescale. Finally, rinse the iron with clean water and repeat the process until the water no longer comes out cloudy. This way, your iron will always be ready for effective ironing without the risk of damage caused by limescale.
