Abstract

The present invention relates to a water heater (1), preferably of the accumulator type, comprising a water heating means (4) and a sheath (5) containing one or more sensors, conceived to measure the temperature of the water in proximity to said water heating means (4), characterised in that it comprises means (6) for reading the presence of lime scaling on said water heating means (4), said reading means (6) using the temperature information of said sensor/s (5) during the heating stage of said means (4); also included in the description is a flange (3) for a water heater and a method for controlling the forming of lime scaling.
