Frequently Asked Questions — K8 Cleaning

E-Cleaning is a deep electrode cleaning procedure using Enagic's special powder. Recommended every 1–2 weeks to remove calcium deposits from the electrodes. Duration: ~3 hours.

Automatic Daily Cleaning

The Leveluk K8 has two automatic cleaning systems that maintain the electrodes during normal device operation.

Auto-Cleaning

~30 seconds

A short cleaning cycle triggered automatically after each use of the device. It reverses the polarity of the plates, removing fine mineral deposits.

Auto-Cleaning

~30 seconds

A longer cleaning cycle triggered after extended periods of inactivity. It provides a deeper cleaning of the plates without user intervention.

After cleaning notes:
• Rinse the Cleaning Tank thoroughly with tap water, dry with a soft cloth and store in a dry place
• The cleaning powder contains citric acid — it is safe as a food additive, but do not drink water during cleaning
• Perform E-Cleaning every 1–2 weeks

Frequently Asked Questions — K8 Cleaning

How often should E-Cleaning be performed?
With soft water and normal use, every 1–2 weeks is recommended. With hard water (above 300 mg/l CaCO₃) — every week. If you notice a drop in the Kangen water's ORP or reduced capacity, that's a signal to clean earlier.
Where to buy E-Cleaner powder for the K8?
E-Cleaner powder is available only through authorized Enagic distributors. Contact us at 607 613 633 — we'll send the powder by courier, or you can pick it up in person.
Can I use the ionizer during E-Cleaning?
No — during the entire E-Cleaning process (about 3 hours) the ionizer is unavailable for normal use. Schedule cleaning for a time when you don't need Kangen water, e.g. overnight.
What happens if I don't clean the ionizer regularly?
Limescale builds up on the platinum-titanium plates and gradually reduces their effectiveness. This shows up as a lower water ORP, poorer ionization and, in extreme cases, damage to the plates. Regular cleaning protects your investment and extends the device's lifespan.
The K8 has a touchscreen — where exactly do I find E-Cleaning?
On the home screen, tap the settings icon at the bottom of the screen. Then select the "E-Cleaning" option and tap it to start the procedure. If you have trouble finding it, call us — I'll guide you through it by phone.
Does E-Cleaning fall under Enagic warranty service?
Yes — performing E-Cleaning regularly is a requirement for maintaining the full Enagic warranty. Lack of maintenance can be grounds for refusing a warranty repair in the case of plate damage caused by limescale.
