Good morning, Joe.

You may have seen my post a few days ago about this on the DeFever
Cruisers' Forum. My advice was to add a half cup of Cascade powdered
dishwashing detergent to each head once a week, clean each with it and
flush. According to Fleet Repair and Marine in Ft. Myers, this is what they
recommend to their clients with Vacuflush systems to keep their hoses from
building up calcium deposits, etc.
