What to do

No water comes out when the hot water 

tap is opened.

Is the cold water inlet filter clean?

 

Is an error code displayed on the front 

 

panel?
Is the water heater frozen?

 

Ensure that the shut–off valves on the hot 

 

and cold pipes are open.
If an error code is displayed, refer to “

 

5.2

The water from the hot water faucet is 

cold or turns cold and stays cold.

Is the cold water inlet filter clean?

 

Is the hot water faucet open wide enough 

 

draw at least 0.5 gallons of water per minute 

(GPM) through the water heater?
Is an error code displayed on the front 

 

panel?
If there is an external recirculation system 

 

installed, is there a check valve on the 

recirculation return line?

Clean the cold water inlet filter. See 

 

“4.4    Cleaning the Inlet Water Filter and 

Recirculation Inlet Filter” on page 12.
Open the hot water faucet completely.

the fixtures.

line from the furthest faucet back to the 

water heater.

The water is not hot enough.

Is the set temperature too low?

Check the water heater’s temperature 

 

setting. Refer to “3.2    Adjusting the Water 

Temperature” on page 8.
Check for cross plumbing between the 

 

cold and hot water lines.

The water is too hot.
