The DHW is cold when only a
single xture is open.
• The unit will not heat the water if the ow rate is less than
0.4 gallons (1.5L) per minute.
* Minimum activation ow rate : 0.4 GPM (1.5L/min)
Minimum operating ow rate : 0.29 GPM (1.1L/min)
Open the xture more or open other xtures so that a greater ow
passes through the unit, and the unit should begin heating again.
Amount of DHW
The amount of DHW at a certain
xture is not constant.
•
When hot water is demanded at other xtures, the amount
available may be reduced. The maximum ow available from
NRCB199DV (GHQ-C3201WX-FF US) and
NRCB180DV(GHQ-C2801WX-FF US) are 8.4 GPM (32L/min.)
and 7.5GPM (28.2L/min.), respectively at a 45°F (25°C)
temperature rise.
• Pressure uctuations and other plumbing conditions can
cause the temperature and pressure at a xture to be
unstable, but it should stabilize after a short time.
• There are some types of hot water taps that discharges
large volumes of hot water at rst but stabilize after time.
• To keep the temperature stable, the unit limits the amount
of water that can ow through it to a small amount initially,
but the amount increases over time.
Amount of DHW available has
decreased over time.
Fluctuations in DHW temperatures.
• Set water temperature at 115°F to 120°F or 48°C (118°F) to
50°C (122°F). This will allow you to use a higher ow of hot
water thus meeting the minimum ow requirement of 0.29 GPM
(1.1L/min.).
* Minimum activation ow rate : 0.4 GPM (1.5L/min)
Minimum operating ow rate : 0.29 GPM (1.1L/min)
• Clean the water lter of any debris. ( p.29)
(Continued)
DHW temperature setting cannot rise.
• Is the maximum temperature setting appropriate? ( p.20)
• Is the water lter clogged? (
p.29)
• If the supply water is hard and has not been treated,
scale can build-up in the Combi Boiler and decrease
the maximum amount of hot water available. Scale can
be removed from the Combi Boiler by ushing the unit
periodically. To prevent scale from forming in the Combi
Boiler, a water softener or scale inhibitor is recommended.
