Water heaters use magnesium bars

Go to check the electric box quickly, discover trip, think the reason and just the toilet "explosion" concerned, but there is no suspicious trace at all on the toilet surface, think it may be the cause of pressure of toilet sewer pipe, toilet lid of course there is no abnormal.

The magnesium bar is designed to clean water, as it slowly reacts with impurities in the water and eventually dissolves into a metal slag at the bottom.

The ultimate secret: After electrify, along with the progress of temperature, water began to natural under way to the outlet was blocked some metal slag, increasing temperature, the drum pressure is bigger, the result is a outlet where metal slag be pressure to break through the "explosion", at the same time the power is severe shock of explosion shock of the barrel and overload relay instantaneous jump fire burned the output pipe.

The toilet and the power trip have nothing to do with it! After power transmission, everything is normal! A few days later, at almost the same time, the same situation happened again.

The water heater of my home is set to begin automatic power supply at 5 o 'clock everyday, the day after about a year after 5 o 'clock in the morning after a few minutes go to bed ear to toilet "bang" very big "explosive sound", accompany follow power failure.

After the third time, it was found that the water heater was not heated by electricity. After inspection, it was known that the output pipe of the time relay was burned out. After replacement, it could be heated! Thinking whether there would be leakage of electricity or other conditions in the heating rod of the water heater, he opened the water heater and examined it carefully. He found that a layer of metal slag was deposited at the bottom of the bucket, and the magnesium rod dissolved only leaving an empty rod.
