9If the heater has to work for a long periods at its maximum capacity it is possible that ice will form on the cylinder. This is due to

excessive vapour withdrawal. NEVER heat the cylinder for this or any other reason. To avoid this e󰀨ect or at least reduce it use a

large cylinder or at least two cylinders linked together, see g.1.
