6. Check that the “summer / winter” valve is in the proper
position for the temperature of the incoming water.
Water Temperature Too low at lower Water flow
rates
1. Check that the “summer / winter” valve is in the proper
position for the temperature of the incoming water.
2. Be sure to momentarily turn water flow to high, then back
to the lower flow when turning on a water faucet. This will
bring the gas flow to the required higher setting.
Water Temperature is Too Hot or no Temperature
control.
1. Fuel tank regulator is set too high and manifold pressure
as described above Have the regulator checked by a
qualified technician.
2. Check that the “summer / winter” valve is in the proper
position for the temperature of the incoming water.
3. Water flow too low for incoming water temperature.
low Heat rise and excessive Water flow is required
To Trigger Water Heater
If you find that your heater requires excessive flow to activate it
(much over .5 gallon per minute), it is likely that you have cold
water bleeding into the hot water side of your water system.
1. Check that valves and faucets are closed when not in use.
If there is an on/off button on your showerhead, always
turn the water valves off after the shower to prevent cold
water from bleeding into the hot water system. This will
keep the heater from functioning properly.
2. Be sure that the bypass valve at the water plumbing
connections is in the “off” position. An open valve can
also permit water to bypass heater, causing it not to fire.
if any problem persists, contact an authorized service
center or atwood.
