Temperature
Hot water is not available
when a fixture is opened.
• Are the gas and water supply valves fully open?

• Are the gas and water supply valves fully open?
• Is the water temperature setting appropriate?
(
p.12 and p.13)
• If the water supply temperature is high, it is possible
for the temperature to be higher than the temperature
set on the remote controller.
• If only a small amount of hot water is demanded, it is
possible for the temperature to be higher than the
temperature set on the remote controller.
• If the supply water goes through a solar pre-heating
system, it is possible for the temperature to be higher
than the temperature set on the remote controller.
The water is too hot.
• Have you allowed enough time for the cold water in the
pipes to drain out?
• Is the water supply cut off?
• Is the heater frozen?
• Is the hot water fixture sufficiently open?
No water is available when
a fixture is opened.
The hot water is not the correct
