EXPANSION CONTROL VALVE RUNNING
If an expansion control valve is fitted in the cold water line to the water heater
(refer to page 23)
temperature pressure relief valve on the water heater. The benefit is that
energy is conserved as the discharged water is cooler.
WATER HEATER APPEARS TO BE LEAKING
When the water heater is first lit, or after a large usage of hot water,
condensation may form on the burner of the water heater. This is quite normal,
especially in winter months and will dry off as the water is heated.
HIGH GAS BILLS
Should you at any time, feel your gas account is too high, we suggest you
check the following points:
•
Is the relief valve running excessively?
(Refer to
"Temperature Pressure Relief
Valve Running"
•
Is one outlet (especially the shower)
using more hot water than you think?
(Refer to
"Not Enough Hot Water"
page 11).
•
Is there a leaking hot water pipe,
dripping hot water tap, etc? Even a
small leak will waste a surprising
quantity of hot water and gas. Replace
faulty tap washers, and have your
plumber rectify any leaking pipe work.
•
Consider recent changes to your hot
water usage pattern and check if there
has been any increase in tariffs since
your previous account.
