    The time between cleaning will vary from weeks to months depending upon water conditions and usage. Burn harzard. The depth of lime buildup should be measured periodically. Heaters equipped with cleanouts will have about 2” of lime buildup when the level of lime has reached the bottom of the cleanout opening. A Hot water discharge. schedule for deliming should then be set up,based on the amount of time it would take for a 1” buildup of lime. It is recommended that the water heater initially be inspected after 6 months. Keep hands clear of drain Example 1: valve discharge. Initial inspection after 6 months shows 1/2” of lime accumulation. Therefore, the heater should be delimed once a year. Example 2: TO DRAIN THE WATER HEATER STORAGE TANK: Initial inspection after 6 months shows 2” of lime accumulation.
  • Page 24: Leakage Checkpoints

    LEAKAGE CHECKPOINTS A. Water at the draft hood is water vapor which has condensed out of the combustion products. This is caused by a problem in the vent. Contact the gas utility. B. *Condensation may be seen on pipes in humid weather or pipe connections may be leaking. C. *The anode rod fitting may be leaking. D. Small amounts of water from temperature-pressure relief valve may be due to thermal expansion or high water pressure in your area. E. *The temperature-pressure relief valve may be leaking at the tank fitting. F. Water from a drain valve may be due to the valve being slightly opened. G. * The drain valve may be leaking at the tank fitting. H. Combustion products contain water vapor which can condense on the cooler surfaces of the tank. Droplets form and drip onto the burner or run on the floor. This is common at the time of start-up after installation and when incoming water is cold.

    TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDELINES These guidelines should be utilized by a qualified service agent. Problem Cause Solution Improperly sealed, hot or cold supply connection, relief Tighten threaded connections. valve, drain valve, or thermostat threads. WATER LEAKS Leakage from other appliances or water lines. Inspect other appliances near water heater. Condensation of flue products. Refer to CONDENSATION. Thermal expansion in closed water system. Install thermal expansion tank (DO NOT plug T&P valve). LEAKING T&P VALVE Check relief valve for proper operation Improperly seated valve. (DO NOT plug T&P valve).
