Tank for CALOR steam irons
The water tank stores the water for your appliance. Generally, the tank must be filled with demineralised water. This part is essential to your machine: it will supply water to a boiler, which will in turn make the iron work. Usually detachable, the tank provides unlimited autonomy when ironing, as it can be re-filled during use (without having to switch off the appliance). Its role is thus to store the water until such a moment as it is pumped and converted into steam!
This tank may oxidise, leak water or deteriorate. If this is the case, it will need to be replaced.
If water leaks from the tank, it will undoubtedly have a split or hole in it. You can check this by disconnecting the water tank if it is detachable, or by examining the tank directly.
If the leak is the result of damage to the tank, replace this component.
Note: it is possible that water is leaking from the tank because it is overfilled. Generally speaking, a maximum level indicator will allow you to verify this. If the quantity of water inside the tank exceeds this threshold, empty some of the water!
