Summary of Contents for GSW Electric Water Heate

  • Page 1 IF YOU HAVE ANY INSTALLATION, PERFORMANCE OR OPERATIONAL QUESTIONS PLEASE CALL THE FOLLOWING NUMBER, PRIOR TO REMOVING THE WATER HEATER (if this is a rental water heater please contact the rental company) 1-888-GSW-TECH 1-888-479-8324 Read these instructions thoroughly before starting...
  • Page 2 Only one element will come on at any one time. This is known as a flip/flop system. On a 240-volt water heater, there will always be 120 volts to both elements. The thermostat will direct the second leg of the 120-volt to the element to complete the 240 volts required for energizing the element.
  • Page 3 6. Repack insulation over thermostat(s), and replace access door(s). 7. Turn the electrical supply to the water heater “ON”. Your water heater has been supplied with an anode rod that protects the tank from corrosion. As the rod works, it slowly dissolves over time and must be replaced.
  • Page 4 NOT ENOUGH OR NO HOT WATER 1. Make sure the electrical supply to the water heater is “ON”. 2. Check for loose or blown fuses and loose connections in the water heater circuit. 3. If the water was too hot and is now cold, the high limit temperature switch may have operated.
  • Page 5 PRESSURE BUILD-UP (THERMAL EXPANSION) During the heating cycle of the water heater, the water expands creating a pressure build-up in the plumbing system. If the pressure exceeds 150 PSI, water will come out of the valve. This is a normal safety function of the T&P valve.
  • Page 6 INCIDENTAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF A DEFECTIVE PART OR HEATER. This warranty and GSW's obligations shall be construed and determined in accordance with the laws of both the Province of Ontario, and of Canada in force therein. This Warranty does not affect specific legal rights of a consumer under applicable law, except to the extent that such rights may be waived or replaced, and the provisions hereof are deemed to be amended to the extent necessary.
