Trac PSR Portable Water System Cleaner, Gallon

Clean the freshwater system of your boat from the inside with TRAC PSR Potable Water System Cleaner.

Specially formulated for potable freshwater systems, PSR targets scale and mineral deposits that accumulate inside water tanks, pipes, fittings and other difficult-to-reach parts of the system.

These deposits can contribute to unpleasant odors, water discoloration and reduced flow. Rather than simply treating the water, PSR is designed to clean the actual freshwater system, removing the build-up at its source.

For boat and yacht owners, this provides a practical way to deep-clean the onboard potable water system without extensive dismantling.

Removes Limescale, Rust & Mineral Deposits

Over time, minerals contained in freshwater can accumulate on the internal surfaces of tanks and plumbing.

Low-lying and flat sections of the system are particularly susceptible to scale build-up. According to TRAC, these deposits can create areas where bacteria can form, contributing to odors and discoloration.

TRAC PSR is formulated to remove freshwater residues including:

• Limescale
• Calcium deposits
• Silicate deposits
• Rust
• Sludge
• Hard-water stains
• Mineral-based scale deposits

By attacking the accumulated scale rather than simply masking the symptoms, PSR helps bring the freshwater system back to a cleaner condition.

Helps Combat Odors & Water Discoloration

If the freshwater from your boat develops an unusual smell or colour, contamination and scale inside the system may be contributing to the problem.

TRAC developed PSR specifically to help rid potable freshwater systems of odors and discoloration by targeting the source.

The cleaner reaches areas inside the tank and plumbing where conventional manual cleaning can be difficult, helping remove the deposits responsible for poor system condition.

Not Just a Water Treatment – It Cleans the System

An important distinction with TRAC PSR is that it is not simply a drinking-water treatment product.

Its purpose is to clean the actual potable water system.

Rather than only adding a treatment to the water, PSR works on scale, lime, rust and mineral deposits inside the tank, pipes and associated system components.

This makes it particularly useful as part of preventive freshwater system maintenance on boats and yachts.

Concentrated Formula – 1 Gallon Treats 30–40 Gallons

TRAC PSR is supplied as a concentrate, making the 1-gallon container suitable for treating considerably larger volumes of water.

According to TRAC:

1 gallon (3.78L) of PSR treats approximately 30–40 gallons (114–151L) of potable water, depending on the required dilution.

The current SDS specifies a typical dilution range of approximately 30:1 to 40:1.

For more targeted cleaning, TRAC’s instructions recommend concentrations based on the level of scale:

• Light scale: 2.5% PSR
• Moderate scale: 5% PSR
• Heavy scale: 10% PSR

Always select the concentration and cleaning procedure according to the official TRAC instructions and the condition of the system.

Clean Tanks & Plumbing with Minimal Dismantling

One of the main advantages of PSR is its simple application process.

Instead of dismantling large sections of plumbing, replacing hoses or trying to mechanically clean difficult internal areas, the diluted solution is introduced into the freshwater tank and moved through the system using the boat’s existing water pump.

For system cleaning, the solution is allowed to pass through each faucet so it can reach the internal plumbing. Once cleaning is complete, the system is thoroughly flushed with fresh water until all traces of PSR have been removed.

This approach provides:

• Minimal dismantling
• Easier access to internal plumbing
• Reduced maintenance downtime
• Cleaning of hard-to-reach areas
• A practical solution for complete freshwater system maintenance

Tank Cleaning

PSR can also be used to clean the freshwater tank itself.

TRAC instructs users to partially fill the tank with water, add the appropriate amount of PSR and then complete filling to achieve proper mixing.

For tank cleaning, the manufacturer recommends allowing the solution to soak for at least 12 hours but no longer than 48 hours, depending on the amount of scale present.

After treatment, the tank must be drained and thoroughly flushed with fresh water according to TRAC’s instructions.

Suitable for Common Potable Water System Materials

According to TRAC, PSR will not harm the properties of most surfaces commonly found in freshwater systems, including:

• Plastic
• Metal
• Rubber
• Fiberglass
• Vinyl
• Wood
• Paint

TRAC does, however, specify that special care should be taken with zinc-based metals, zinc anodes, tin and galvanized materials.

Always confirm material compatibility and follow the current manufacturer’s instructions before treatment.

When Should You Clean Your Boat’s Freshwater System?

TRAC recommends flushing the water system approximately once every three years as a general preventive-maintenance guideline. More frequent attention may be appropriate when hard water is regularly taken onboard.

Signs that the freshwater system may need cleaning can include:

• Changes in water colour
• Unpleasant odors
• Reduced water flow
• Visible scale inside the tank
• Hard-water deposits
• Rust-coloured contamination

Addressing scale before it becomes severe can help keep the onboard freshwater system cleaner and reduce problems associated with accumulated mineral deposits.

Technical Specifications

A Deep Clean for Your Boat’s Freshwater System

The freshwater system is easy to overlook because most of its components are hidden behind panels, under floors and inside tanks. But that is exactly where scale and mineral deposits can gradually accumulate.

TRAC PSR Potable Water System Cleaner provides a straightforward way to clean the system internally, reaching the tank, pipes and other areas that would otherwise be difficult to access.

Whether you’re dealing with limescale, rust, mineral deposits, unpleasant odors, discoloration or reduced water flow, PSR provides a purpose-designed solution for maintaining your boat’s potable freshwater system.

With 1 gallon treating approximately 30–40 gallons of potable water, the concentrated formula is also an economical choice for periodic yacht and boat maintenance.
