TROUBLE SHOOTING

PROBLEM: Water does not get hot

1. Make sure the power supply is on and working.

2. If light does not come on, check that the reset button is pushed in;

follow steps from previous section.

3. If the indicator light is illuminated, but water temperature does not

get hot at the sink, test for a plumbing crossover as follows; shut

off cold water supply to water heater and open hot water tap. There

should be no water owing. Any continuous ow indicates a cross

over which will effect the temperature and will need to be corrected.

4. If there is no crossover, then replace the heating element

(see previous sections).

PROBLEM: Indicator light not on

1. If the light does not come on, but water gets hot, check for faulty

bulb.

PROBLEM: Brown water

rod.

PROBLEM: Odor in water

temperature setting. If temperature does not lower within 60

minutes, then replace thermostat.
