[QUOTE="RedReefer, post: 8618768, member: 32222"] So I have read many times and I'm guilty of vinegar use. So far it looks like citric acid is the normal now. What ratio are we mixing the citric acid to a gal of water? Return pump every 6-12 months. Take it out the sump. Place it in a 5 gal bucket of vinegar/warm water (I know I'm going to switch to citric acid) Let it run for 30 min. Scrub with brushes. Rinse in RODI water. Re-install the pump. Power heads. 1-2 months or when I see too much build up. Same method as above. [/QUOTE]
