NO WATER FROM THE HOT TAP
No flow of water from the hot tap may indicate a restriction in or failure of the cold water supply to the water
heater. Check for water flow at other taps and that the cold water isolation valve
open.
WATER FLOW FLUCTUATES
More than two or three taps in use at the same time may cause a decrease in the hot water flow from the
taps. This can also be evident if the water heater has been installed as a gas booster water heater to a solar
preheat water heater and the solar preheat water is at a low temperature.
•
Are there more than two or three taps open, or are appliances such as a dishwasher or washing
machine, in use at the same time?
Ensure only two or three taps or appliances are on at the one time.
•
Check the flow of the water from one tap, e.g., the shower.
The shower should be adjusted so the hot tap is fully open.
