Turning Off the Water Heater
To turn the water heater off, switch off the valve of hot water outlet or
the water inlet. Then, the flame will automatically extinguish, and the
water heater will return to stand-by mode.
This gas instant water heater must be checked by professionals
every 6-12 months. Parts of the water heater that need to be
checked are in the following:
1.
Seal of the gas and water track system.
2.
Flexibility of the water and gas piping connection.
3.
Functions of all the operating parts.
4.
Burner of the flame (for combustion).
5.
Air loading and releasing/relief system inside of the room
where the water heater is installed.
6.
Gas pressure reducer.
7.
Apply the lubricants to the gas valve and on its middle part.
Parts of water heater that must be cleaned by professional:
1.
Filter at the edge of the water supply line to prevent
congestion.
2.
Carbon crust on the buckled part of the heat exchanger.
3.
The disturbing carbon accumulation and oxidation layer in the
igniter.
NOTE
The water heater cannot be used continuously for a long time. It will
automatically turn off after 20 minutes in continuous operation to
prevent the accidental carbon monoxide poisoning due to
inadvertent or accidental long period use.
