Calcium carbonate in the water tends to precipitate out of solution at elevated temperature of 47.5°C – 65°C (117.5°F- 149°F), just so happens to be near the condition inside the water heater here in North America. Over time, the calcification will congest the pipe and impede flow, hence it is recommended that these instant hot water heaters are descaled with a mild acid solution every 12-months or so. I hope this video helps you with your maintenance chores.
