Descaling tips

[Clint 1979]

Hi all,

I've got a customer with a scaled up thermostatic cartridge and flow cartridge on his shower.
Before he parts with £200+ to replace them I would like to try soaking them in a Descaling solution of some kind.......my question is......

What have you guys used thats tried and tested and works well??
Whats the best off the shelf product? Or is there a good solution you can knock up at home??

Thanks for any recommendations

Clint

I find 'Kilrock' to be the best around.

This is good stuff, very strong though always use in well vented space, with ppe, etc.
