Solenoid Wiring
Water control valves draw their power directly from a unit’s
24V transformer and can overload and possibly burn out
the transformer. Check total VA draw of the water valve
and ensure that it is under 15 VA.

In ground water situations where scaling could be heavy
or where biological growth such as iron bacteria will be
present, a closed loop system is recommended. The heat
exchanger coils in ground water systems may, over a period
of time, lose heat exchange capabilities due to a buildup
of mineral deposits inside. These can be cleaned, but only
Water Quality
by a qualified service mechanic, as special solutions and
pumping equipment are required. Hot water generator coils
can likewise become scaled and possibly plugged. In areas
with extremely hard water, the owner should be informed
that the heat exchanger may require occasional flushing.
