    Can anyone recommend a good product to run through my AC units and circulation pump to descale them. I'm based in France and Northern Italy.

    Any suggestions??

    Trac's "Barnacle Buster", phosphoric acid, in a pinch very diluted muratic acid.

    Oh, I guess I should have asked, are you talking about your raw water or fresh water (if you have chilled water) side of the system?

    Thanks

    It's raw water.

    Cheers!

    Just remember, more is not better while acid flushing your system.

    I use a product called Rydlime. I use this to flush various heat exchangers/condensors.

    I guess that folks out there have their preferences.
