As for solar water heaters, it 's mainly inside the vacuum tube, basically water scale deposition inside a vacuum tube, there's no impact on the water tank , and because relatively slow heating in tubes, deposition of water scale in tube is relatively loose, not like the formed hard water scale when we use electric kettle  to heat water at home. Depending on the different water quality, generally in about 5 years to install solar water heater vacuum tube needs to be cleaned with a weak acid , washed with water after cleaning 3-5 times to ensure clean.
