Troubleshooting (cont.)
If water drips from the spout, run the water to drain four to five
cups of water from the tank while the unit is heating. This will
drain any water out of the unit's expansion chamber. If water still
drips out of the spout prior to the automatic thermostat shutting
off, turn the thermostat to a slightly lower temperature setting.
If water pressure occasionally drops below 20 p.s.i. (1.38 bar), the
expansion chamber of the tank may not be draining properly. In
such a case, water may drip out of the spout until the incoming
water has been heated enough to turn off the thermostat. When
adequate water pressure is restored, the next use will empty the
expansion chamber. Occasional drops in water pressure will not
adversely affect the operation of your unit.
Examine the venting system every six months for obstructions
and/or deterioration of the vent tubing.
