If you want to run an annual deep clean, or if your Monk has been left off for a long period of time with water in the system, you can do a full system flush. We recommend using Huwa-San TR5 (a silver stabilised hydrogen peroxide) to remove build up of bio film and bacteria from the system.
Here’s why we recommend it:
- It’s an eco-friendly disinfectant as breaks down to oxygen and water which makes it better for the environment and no unhealthy by-products are formed
- It’s alcohol and chlorine free, so it’s not harsh on skin
- It combats legionella and all other water bacteria, fungi and algae, and removes any biofilms inside pipework
Step 1: Fully drain Monk, and refill with fresh water to the minimum fill line. Follow our Changing the Water guide for step-by-step instructions.
Step 2: With Monk turned on, pour 350ml of Huwa-San TR5 into the Monk tub.
Step 3: Set the temperature to 14°c and leave it to run for 12 hours.
Step 4: Drain Monk following the draining instructions.
Step 5: You might find there’s a little residual biofilm left on visible surfaces. This can be wiped clear using a clean cloth.
Step 6: Change the water filter, following the water filter changing instructions.
Step 7: Refill with water, and your Monk is ready to use.
Please note that any product with Chlorine or Chlorine Dioxide should not be used with Monk. These chemicals are not compatible with the materials and components inside Monk and will cause damage.
