Well, it is recommended every 6-7 months to do a complete drain out and refill as the liquid gunk up a lot.. To my honest opinion it's only worth it if you get your components for free like the reviewers.. What ever goes wrong or costs a lot, they get it for free from the companies they get sponsored from..

However, if you see the reservoir water level dropping, the water did not turn into steam, it actually leaked and you have to figure out exactly where before it drips on something and shorts it out.. It's a risky game tbh.. :)
