    You are my goto for decalcifying my truma, it is such a great video. I still have to refresh myself each time i do this process.

    Great video. It’s good to actually see you go through the steps to understand what to expect. Thank you.

      Thanks for watching and commenting! Blinking lights are always concerning but in this case, it's just the system's way of telling us it wants some attention.

    Super great video. I find these are helpful because that is how we learned.

      We learn a ton by watching others too and it feels good to give back by posting our own how-to videos.

    Since we only go thru this process twice a year, I can't remember the steps, so we want to thank you for your nice detailed video. We love our Truma AquaGo too! Safe Travels.

      You are very welcome. Today is our day to decalcify. As full-timers, and based on the amount of water we use (those LONG showers), we do it about three times a year.

    Thank you! Even though I have the Truma manual (and referred to it also) it was very helpful to see you walk through all the steps. Well done video, clear and concise without a lot of extra verbiage.

    Thank you for making this video. We ran out of propane on our rig and somehow the switch got moved to the "Clean" cycle and I couldn't figure out what was happening with the constant blinking lights. We haven't seen the amber warning light, but the main selector switch was blinking off and on for the past couple of months. I couldn't find the original manual so I downloaded it and wasn't able to see what I needed to stop the blinking. I ran across your video and now everything makes perfect sense. We've been in this RV full time since July 2022 and have yet to do the decalcification cleaning so tomorrow I'm getting some tablets and will do that job properly.

    • @gfexplorers
      @gfexplorers  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We did the same thing very early on in our full-timing! We Googled it and finally found the answer. Good luck on your decalcification!! Hope to see you out on the road!

  • @edyost6433

    Great information. We just got a Truma installed. When you do the calcification process, do you have the propane on?

    • @gfexplorers
      @gfexplorers  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for watching and commenting! No, we never turn the propane off when doing the process.

    I noticed you did not mention one of the last steps. I didn’t notice it until after you were done flushing the system a second time. Looks like you missed turning the dial back to clean while doing the last flush. Thank for a good video.

    • @gfexplorers
      @gfexplorers  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the comment! I will double check the instructions, but I dont think you ever turn the dial back to clean once you move out of it.. It takes a good 8-10 gal of water to clear the clean "blinking". You'll know that from experience if you ever accidentally turn your dial to clean, it's a bit of a process to clear it. You'll only make that mistake once, like we did :) The feedback is important, want to give full/factual info so i will dig into it to verify. Thanks Aaron.

    Well that was nice of you to do this video but playing hide and seek on how to install the tablets wasn't very good.

    • @gfexplorers
      @gfexplorers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Bad camera angle! The tablets slide into the cartridge very easily and only fit one way. Thanks for watching and commenting!

      It seemed obvious however, I found somebody else's video out there. Thanks tho as we do appreciate videos like these!

    Is there any reason why after the 3 hours decalcification is done that you leave the yellow handle down and flush out the truma tank and filter then replace them and go inside to continue bleeding the air from all hot water outlets except the dish or clothes washers? Perhaps it's closed off when the handle is down but if not in winterize position it seems like it should flush. Just a thought.

    • @gfexplorers
      @gfexplorers  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The process works fine so I am not sure what you are asking.

    • @frankshiffer588
      @frankshiffer588 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@gfexplorers Yes, it works as you described. I am curious why it takes 8 gallons to get it flushed out and thought perhaps flushing with the filter handle open might shorten that time, but it could extend the amount needed. Just a thought as to why it needs approximately 8 gallons.

      @@frankshiffer588 That's the process as instructed by Truma, and there may be a different way but we have not tried it.

    My water has all of the sudden started smelling like chemicals from the sync and showers. Any ideas why? I checked with all my neighbors and their water is fine, so it’s not city water.

    • @gfexplorers
      @gfexplorers  ปีที่แล้ว

      After you descaled? Is the water pinkish in color?

      @@gfexplorers no I haven’t done anything to the water yet. One morning all of the sudden the water came out of our faucets/shower, when it filled up the sink it looked like carbonated water; very bubbly (it wasn’t like there was air in the system) and smelt like a chemical.
