How to Drain and Refill the VikingUpdated 7 days ago
1. Draining the Viking
Unplug the chiller before starting any maintenance.
Close both grey valves on the Viking to stop water flow.
Attach a garden hose to the bottom drain valve for easy draining.
Open the drain valve and allow the water to fully empty.
2. Cleaning the Viking
Disconnect the hoses after draining to prevent soap from entering the system.
Scrub the interior with mild dish soap (e.g., Dawn) using a soft sponge or brush.
Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
Securely close the drain valve and both grey valves when finished.
3. Refilling the Viking
Ensure all valves are closed before refilling.
Reconnect the hoses to the chiller.
Refill the Viking until the water level is about four fingers below the top port.
Open both grey valves to allow water flow.
Plug the chiller back in
