TEMPERATURE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE RUNNING

•Normal Operation

It is normal and desirable that this valve allows a small quantity of water to escape during the heating cycle. However, if the discharge is deemed excessive (more than 2% of hot water used), there may be another problem.

•Continuous dribble

Try gently raising the easing lever on the relief valve for a few seconds (refer to “Temperature Pressure Relief Valve” on page 9). This may dislodge a small particle of foreign matter and clear the fault. Release the lever gently.

•Steady flows for long period (often at night)

This may indicate the mains water pressure sometimes rises above the designed pressure of the water heater. Ask your installing plumber to fit a pressure limiting valve.

NEVER replace the relief valve with one of a higher pressure rating.

•Heavy flows of hot water until water heater is cold - then stops until water reheats

The water heater must be switched off at the switchboard. Phone your nearest Rheem Service Department or Accredited Service Agent to arrange for an inspection.

EXPANSION CONTROL VALVE RUNNING

If an expansion control valve is fitted in the cold water line to the water heater (refer to page 25) it may discharge a small quantity of water instead of the temperature pressure relief valve on the water heater. The benefit is that energy is conserved as the discharged water is cooler.
