Vinegar is a weak acid with a relatively high pH. That means it reacts slowly so it is much safer for people to handle than other acids. It is also much safer to use as a flavoring agent than other acids.

How to clean a hot water heater with vinegar effectively?

To clean a hot water heater with vinegar effectively, first turn off the power or gas supply to the heater. Next, drain a few gallons of water from the tank to make room for the vinegar. Then, pour in a few gallons of white vinegar and let it sit for a few hours or overnight. After that, flush out the vinegar by draining the tank completely and refilling it with clean water. Finally, turn the power or gas supply back on and let the water heater run for a while to ensure all the vinegar is flushed out.
