TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Possible cause of fault
Possible solution
There is leakage/dripping
from the safety valve/
there is often water on the
floor by the cylinder in the
morning
Pressure reduction valve, water meter or
blocked non-return valve on the water in-
take.
Water pressure into the home is too high.
Fit AX expansion vessel with absorbs expansion
during heating, and fit pressure reduction valve
for stable water pressure inside the home. The
pressure reduction valve is adjusted in according
to the pressure in the expansion vessel. Contact
auth. installer.
The safety valve is worn or there are parti-
cles stuck between the membrane and the
valve seat because the water is dirty
Try to flush with water through the safety valve.
Open valve for approx. 1 minute. See section 5.2.
If the valve still leaks, it must be replaced. Con-
tact auth. installer.
Leak from heating element.
Verify as follows: a) cut the electric supply, b) un-
screw the cover, c) visually check whether there
is a leak from the heating element. If so, replace
the gasket/heating element. Contact auth. in-
staller.
