MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
MINOR MAINTENANCE EVERY SIX MONTHS
It is recommended minor maintenance be performed every six (6) months. Minor maintenance can be
performed by the dwelling occupant.
The minor maintenance includes:
If readily and safely accessible, operate the easing lever on the temperature pressure relief valve. It is
very important the lever is raised and lowered gently. Refer to
“Temperature Pressure Relief Valve”
page 10.
If the relief valve lever is not readily and safely accessible, contact Rheem Service or their nearest
Accredited Service Agent. Do not attempt to climb onto a non-trafficable roof to operate the relief valve
lever.
Warning:
Exercise care to avoid any splashing of water, as water discharged from the drain line will
be hot. Stand clear of the drain line’s point of discharge when operating the valve’s lever.
If readily and safely accessible, operate the easing lever on the expansion control valve. It is very important
the lever is raised and lowered gently. Refer to
on page 10.
If the relief valve lever is not readily and safely accessible, contact Rheem Service or their nearest
Accredited Service Agent. Do not attempt to climb onto a non-trafficable roof to operate the relief valve
lever.
MAJOR SERVICE EVERY FIVE YEARS
It is recommended a major service be conducted on the water heater every five (5) years. If an anode
replacement is conducted sooner than a major service, then the major service should coincide with the
replacement.
Warning
: Servicing of a water heater must only be carried out by a qualified person. Phone Rheem Service
or their nearest Accredited Service Agent.
Note:
The major service and routine replacement of any components, such as the anode and relief valves,
are not included in the Rheem warranty. A charge will be made for this work. Only genuine replacement parts
should be used on this water heater.
The major service includes the following actions:
Replace the temperature pressure relief valve.
Inspect and flush the expansion control valve. If required, replace the valve.
Inspect and if required, replace the anode.
If the anode is not replaced, it should be replaced within three (3) years of this service (refer to
on page 13).
Check the booster heating unit for excessive calcium build-up or corrosion and replace if necessary.
Clean the collector glass.
Visually check the unit for any potential problems.
Inspect all connections.
Note:
The solar storage tank may need to be drained during this service. After the completion of the service,
the solar storage tank will take some time to reheat the water by solar gain. Depending upon the power supply
connection to the booster heating unit, hot water may not be available until the next day.
