Troubleshooting
10.1 Introduction
Many of the questions customers ask regarding operation of
this unit can be answered by following the troubleshooting
steps as outlined below. For best results, perform each step
before proceeding to the next. The suggested solutions may
require that the cover be taken off. (See fig. 3, page 9).
10.2 Burner does not ignite when a hot water
faucet is opened
1. If the display is blank, verify power at the outlet. (120VAC/
60Hz properly grounded circuit required). Verify the
heater power supply.
2. Verify the fuses in the control board are good. To access the
fuses, the control board must be removed. See chapter
7.2, page 26.
3. Make sure cold water inlet connection is plumbed to the
right side of the heater when facing unit. See Fig.12, page
19.
4. A minimum of 0.45 gallons per minute (1.7 l/m) of hot
water demand is required to activate the heater. Confirm at
least 0.4 gpm flow by timing how long it takes to fill a
container. A quart container should fill in 20 seconds or
less, from the hot water tap only. Gradually increase water
flow (hot water demand) through the heater to determine if
the heater activates with higher flow.
5. Clean the inlet water filter screen per chapter 6.3, page 19.
6. Inspect the water path for obstructions. Make sure all
shower heads, faucet aerators and whole house filters are
clear of debris.
7. Check for a plumbing crossover. A crossover in the hot and
cold plumbing pipes creates back pressure on the water
flowing through the heater. Therefore, a higher flow rate
than normal is needed to force the heater to activate. To
check for a plumbing crossover, shut off the cold water
supply to the water heater. Then open all of the hot water
taps served by the water heater. Wait 10 minutes and
check for water flow at each tap. There should be no water
flowing. Any continuous flow of water, small or large,
indicates a crossover is present and must be corrected.
Consult a professional plumber for help in correcting a
crossover. Failing single lever faucet mixing valves are
common causes of plumbing crossovers.
8. With the water heater's power supply OFF and the power
supply cord unplugged, remove the unit's front cover (See
fig. 3, page 9). Check wire connections between the water
valve, control unit and electrode set. See fig. 34, page 43.
10.3 Water is too hot
1. Selected temperature on the unit may be too high. To lower
output temperature, see chapter 8.4, page 28.
2. Clean the inlet water filter screen per chapter 9.1, page 29
to increase flow through the heater.
3. Inspect the water path for obstructions. Make sure all
shower heads, faucet aerators and whole house filters are
clear of debris.
4. Confirm the heater's gas type coincides with the type of gas
being supplied. See fig. 2, page 9 for the location of the
rating plate.
CAUTION:
▶ If you are unable to perform the tasks
listed below, or need additional
assistance please contact the person
responsible for the installation.
