ANSWER: If you notice a brown deposit (lime scale) in your heating tank, it is time to de-scale your appliance. Please note, lime is a natural mineral deposit that is non-toxic.

ANSWER: De-scaling your appliances (coffee makers, tea kettles, steam irons, humidifiers, and even dishwashers) regularly to remove mineral build-up is recommended to ensure long product life.
