Having PROBLEMS with your TANKLESS Water Heater? TRY THIS - Water Heaters 101
What's the best thing you can do in Texas when it's over 100 degrees outside? Crawl in an attic to work on a tankless water heater, of course!
Today we're up in an attic troubleshooting a tankless water heater for a client. This tankless water heater was giving us an error code 12.
We're going to show you how to take some of these parts off, clean them, and help get your water heater back up to running shape.
Enjoy and thanks for watching!

Our is brand new installed maybe 2 weeks ago and you can't even fill the kitchen sink up without a code 12 and not a lot of hot water. It is NG and has a flex line for gas.

Hi Roger, Thank you for all your video's . We constantly struggle with the error code 10 0n allot of these units as well as a the older naviens. I have done everything from cleaning the burners, blower moters, replacing moter's and boards, snaking the vents, etc. We love to give options, but these options of cleaning vs replacements are creating tension because if we attempt to clean and maintain the system and it doesn't work, and now the customer is on the hook for the repairs. Now we are at the replacement option. We often will give a 50 percent discount of the repair to put towards the replacement. But I am sure your viewers would really benefit from a video of how you would deal with this. Its something we deal as techs, owners, etc. I love seeing how everyone deals with this as it is always a struggle. Love your video's, and you have may all ready covered this . As a business owner I struggle with this and am trying to educate my staff to deal with the same issue. Colin Snider Freeflow Mechanical Ltd Beaumont Alberta Canada

Ive fixed a bunch of these errors by using vinnegar down the exhaust to de scale the sediment trap.. what happens is the trap gets filled with some debris and the unit trips out the pressure switch.. might be your issue.. worth mentioning.

Mine - the external pressure regulator for the gas line was stuck. Just tapped it with the handle of a screwdriver and the unit then fired up. Ugh. Mounted outside, everything is brand new, was working fine for a week or so. Not sure what would’ve caused this or if it’ll happen again.

Iv got Luke warm water at best and when I shower I have to go turn on the tap to hot in my other bathroom sink and let it run on low trickle while I have a shower to get it hot . When I turn the tap on on the other bathroom to a full flow the tankless heater cuts out and beeps . Any ideas ?

My Rinnai electric hot water tank keeps flipping the breaker when taking a shower or doing laundry. What could be causing this is very annoying to have to have someone at the breaker flipping it back on when you’re taking a shower and freezing your butt off.. any ideas why it keeps tripping? I seen the video on cleaning the filter but we’ve never done that. Could that be the problem?

@EurekaRecycler

our on demand / tank-less water heater system is messed up. This one has a recalculation pump. It seem we only get hot water when another hot water tap is open than it seems to heat water fine than after a minute the water flow completely shuts off. If I turn the hot water valve off for a minute or so it will turn on with good flow for about a minute than completely shuts off the water flow. Anyone every had this issue, and how did you fix it ? Thanks

I keep loosing hot water, and hoped this video might help, but my Rennai set up is much larger and more sophisticated than that little box. The plumber just left, gave me some bs answer that will probably last six months if I keep hitting the reset button. Thanks, I’ll check out your other videos

I bought an on-demand propane water heater online and it flashes like it will ignite and then nothing. The manufacturer said I need to adjust the ignition needle but would not even send me a photo showing where to look or how to adjust it. Can you give me some guidance on this task? Send a photo or diagram with the part in question circled and how to adjust it please. These cold showers in a room that is poorly heated in December are not fun. Thank you.

You just took the manifold plate off the front of the burner. The face plate comes off the burner and all of the innards will slide out, allowing you to clean it much more thoroughly with an air compressor. If Rinnai saw this video, they would tell you did not clean the burner

I’m having a problem with mine. There is no error code but no hot water. If I go to the unit (it’s mounted on the outside of the house) and open a water line (that looks like just an extra line for outside use)the unit comes on and we have hot water for about 24 hours then I have to go open the line again. Do you know what would cause this?
@RogerWakefield
@RogerWakefield 5 лет назад
Buddy Gallo that's strange. What brand is it and have you contacted the manufacturer? Sometimes if the aerators or shower heads get too clogged up there won't be enough water flow to fire the system.

So there wasn't any where else in or around the house that that water heater could have been installed except the attic? Being Texas it does explain a lot though. People in those red states aren't the brightest bulbs in the room. 🤣
