TROUBLESHOOTIN G

In the event any of the following conditions occur, follow troubleshooting instructions noted below to

resolve.

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 flowing. Any continuous flow indicates a cross over which will affect the

temperature and will need to be corrected.

4. If there is no crossover, then replace the heating element (see previous sections).

INDICATOR LIGHT NOT ON

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

2. Check reset button; follow steps from previous section.

BROWN WATER

1. Brown or rusty water indicates a “spent” anode rod. Replace anode rod.

ODOR IN WATER

1. Odor in water could be due to an unusual reaction between local water and the heater’s anode rod.

Check anode rod.

WATER IS TOO HOT

1. Turn the temperature knob counter clockwise to a lower temperature setting. If temperature does

not lower within 60 minutes, then replace thermostat.

WATER IS NOT HOT ENOUGH

1. Under Instructions for Use, see “Setting the thermostat”.

WATER IS LEAKING

1. Turn off power switch and disconnect water heater from 110 VAC power supply.

2. Check water fittings and T&P fitting in the top of the tank.

3. Remove cover and inspect heating element gasket.
