Flushing Your Hot Water Heater

Have you flushed your hot water heater lately? Did you know such a thing should or could even be done? Heater manufacturers and service professionals alike recommend to flush your heater’s system periodically to keep it running at maximum efficiency, with the highest reliability, for many years to come.

Before jumping into the step-by-step instructions on how to flush your water heater, there are a few bits of information that are helpful to know about why it is such a necessary maintenance step for proper care and longevity of your heating system:

Sediment build-up from sand, gravel, well or ground-water grit, and other deposits that inevitably contaminate municipal water mains, is expected to some degree but easily alleviated with regular flushes.

How often flushing is required will depend on the quality of water in your area. Higher mineral and chemical content requires a greater frequency of flushing.

Neglected build-up may result in reduced tank capacity, loud or odd noises emitting from the heater, clogged drain valves, or (as previously stated) a decrease in overall efficiency.

Heater flushing can be a messy procedure. It is recommended to read through the instructions below first before you start servicing your water heater. Doing so should help to accurately plan, minimising the mess and increasing the ease of the process as much as possible.

Flush It Away, Step by Step!

For gas water heaters, first verify the gas valve is set to PILOT. This will prevent burners from turning on while your heater is being serviced.

For electric water heaters, verify the circuit breaker connected to the heating system is in the OFF position to ensure your safety and protect the heater from overheating.

Attach a garden hose to the drain valve located at the tank’s bottom. As this will be used for discharging hot, sometimes scalding, water, you will want to make certain the designated area is safe and clear of others, especially pets and children.

Close the shut-off valve for the cold water inlet.

Release the temperature and pressure relief valve located at the top of the tank by lifting the lever and leaving it in the OPEN position.

Open the drain valve connected to the garden hose. Water should start discharging from the tank, through the hose, to the designated discharge area.

If sediment appears to be clogged in the valve, it may be able to be ‘power flushed’ out by closing the relief valve and turning the cold inlet back on.

Sediment may harden into larger coagulates that may prove more difficult to break up. If needed, let the system cool before detaching the garden hose and using an elongated tool—such as a long-stemmed screwdriver—to break up clogs.

Once the hose runs completely clear, you have successfully flushed out all the gunk!

Close the drain valve located at the tank’s bottom and detach the garden hose.

If still open, close the relief valve and turn the cold water inlet back on.

Open a hot water tap, letting it run until there are no more air bubbles emitted.

Turn your heater back on. If using a gas heater, also re-light the pilot light, as needed.

Water Heater Replacement

A Simple Method In Replacing Water Heater

From removing your old heater to installing a new one, this guide offers step-by-step instructions for water heater replacement of your gas or electric-storage type water heater.

Out With the Old

1. You first need to turn off your gas or electricity that routes through the heating system:

  • If removing a gas heater, verify if its pilot light is out before disconnecting and capping off the lines.
  • Continuing for gas heaters, separate the vent pipe from draft hood. You may need to extract a sheet metal screw, should the hood be screwed into place.
  • For an electric heater, take off the plate covering the wires entry. It is recommended to use a tester or voltmeter to confirm there are no live circuits. Remember to first test a known-good outlet to ensure an accurate read.
  • Continuing for electric heaters, once you have confirmed all connected wires are dead, remove electrical panel’s plate covering, unscrew wire nuts, and disconnect all wires, pulling them out of the heater. If there is a conduit attached, remove that at this time as well.

2. Then drain the storage tank completely:

  • Attach a garden hose to the drain valve, placing its other end in a designated discharge area. Keep in mind its discharge will be hot, so keep clear of pets and children.
  • Turn off cold water inlet feeding in and open a hot water tap, allowing air to enter and water to drain out.
  • Open the drain valve and allow all hot water to discharge through the attached garden hose. Ensure discharging spout of the hose is lower than the tank base for proper drainage.
  • Once the tank is completely drained, detach the garden hose.

3. Almost there! Now disconnect piping from heater:

  • If threaded fittings known as unions are the connectors, use a pair of pipe wrenches to remove them.
  • If piping is soldered into place, they will require to be cut away by use of a pipe or tubing cutter or hacksaw. Be sure to make the cut as close as possible or, if using copper flex connectors for your new heater, at most appropriate placing for such.

4. Finally, extract the old water heater to be disposed of properly:

  • Research local services that may be available to assist with proper disposal or recycling of old heaters.

And in With The New!

1. Position your new heater so that It will easily hook up to water piping and/or gas vent piping.

2. If installing a new gas heater, affix the draft hood, as needed.

  • It is common for many draft hoods to insert by pegs into openings on top of the heater.

3. Continuing for gas heaters, connect the vent piping with short sheet metal screws.

4. Now to connect the hot and cold water lines:

  • If your new heater used unions like your old one, feel free to reconnect the new as needed using a pair of pipe wrenches once more.
  • The easiest method, however, is to use copper flex-connectors, which are easily bent to reach where needed.
  • If you had to cut The surrounding piping, the copper flex-connectors may be soldered to the severed pipes to complete the inlet and outlet connections. The inlet should be attached to the cold water shut off valve.

5. Configure the new heater’s temperature and pressure relief valve and line:

  • This relief system automatically regulates temperature and pressure so the water does not get too hot and the gas does not become too pressurised.
  • Run a pipe from the relief valve to a safe discharge location, typically within 6-inches of the floor. Again, the discharge may be hot, so keep clear of others.

6. With the plumbing connected, now close the heater’s drain valve and open the cold water inlet, filling the storage tank.

  • Opening a hot water tap releases any air trapped in the top of the tank, ensuring the tank fills as it needs.

7. After you have verified there are no leaks, reconnect your gas or electric lines.

  • Consult the manufacturer’s documentation that came with your new heater and carefully follow the provided instructions for your first-time use.

Gas Water Heater

Your Basic Guide to Gas Water Heater Maintenance

If you have a gas water heater, it is important to know when to have it professionally serviced. Understanding how to detect when maintenance may be required can be critical to the safety of your home. Whether you are installing or turning on your gas water heater for the first time or trying to familiarise yourself as much as possible with its functions, we hope you will find something of value in our tips and troubleshooting guide.

A Few Simple Tips

— Always remember to turn your thermostat to the OFF position before servicing your heater.

— Keep open flames and high-heat devices away from the gas water heater.

— Use dish detergent solution on all gas connectors to check for leaks.

— If leaks are detected, repair them straight away.

— Read through the manufacturer’s documentation for your heater and carefully follow the provided instructions.

— If lighting the pilot light, keep in mind there may be a delay before the flame catches as air is purged from the gas lines.

— Once the pilot light has been lit, the main burner’s flame should settle to a cool bluish hue and should not produce smoke.

— If the storage tank is cold upon lighting the pilot light, it is normal that there may be a bit of a sizzle caused by condensed water dripping onto the burner.

— If you discover a puddle of water collecting under the heater, there is a leak that requires repair.

Basic Troubleshooting

It is recommended to hire or otherwise enlist the help of a qualified technician to accurately diagnose issues and, if needed, safely and efficiently carry out repairs. That being said, there are a few common issues that may be affecting your gas water heater if it is in need of maintenance. If your heater exhibits any of these symptoms, call in the professionals. Inline Plumbing & Electrical with over 30 years experience 1300 465 463!

No Hot Water Output

— Verify the pilot light is lit. If it is not, attempt to light it by following the manufacturer’s instructions.

— If the pilot light will not relight, this may indicate a clogged pilot line or you may need to consult your gas supplier, as the gas may not be reaching the water heater.

— If the pilot light catches but is unable to stay lit, there may be a defective thermocouple or loose connection to the gas control valve. If tightening a connection does not resolve the issue, it may be isolated to the thermocouple or possible build-up in the gas line.

— Run your tap on hot for several minutes and see if the heater’s burner comes on. If it never turns on, the heater’s control valve or thermostat may be defective. Remember to check the valve knob before this test, as it should be set in the ON position rather than PILOT.

NOT ENOUGH HOT WATER OUTPUT

— Verify the heater’s thermostat is not set too low and check for leaking taps.

— If the heater’s dip tube requires repair or replacement, incoming cold water will not be heated as it passes through.

— If you suspect your heater may have a clogged burner or low gas pressure, consult the manufacturer’s documentation and/or a service professional to find out more.

Slow Recovery of Hot Water Output

— If the burner is not operating to its optimum efficiency or is otherwise malfunctioning, recovery may take longer on a consistent or varied basis.

— Verify your gas water heater is properly ventilated. Insufficient combustion air caused by poor ventilation may prohibit or delay a heater’s ability to recover heat.

— If there appears to be sediment build-up in the bottom of the heater, flushing the system may help.

Discharge from Temperature/Pressure Relief Valve

— A heater’s relief valve is designed to regulate water temperature and gas pressure. If the water output is too hot or the gas too pressurised, a discharge may occur and be indicative of a faulty valve, defective bypass, or blockage in the heater’s piping or tank.

— Your city’s water pressure may have increased and the relief valve may require adjustment or replacement.

— Installing an expansion tank may help alleviate these issues. Speak with a service professional if you detect any of these symptoms.

Emitting Popping/Banging Noise

— Build-up may gather in the bottom of the water tank, potentially causing a variety of noises.

— Flushing the tank, in most cases, resolves this issue.

— If the noise continues after the system has been flushed, seek advice from a service professional.

Odourous Hot Water

— Certain types of bacteria have been known to react with a heater’s anode rod. If the rod is made of magnesium, it may result in a foul-smelling, sulphuric odour.

— If your hot water output smells like rotten eggs or otherwise, a thorough cleaning of the tank’s interior and additional piping is recommended.

— If your tank has recently been cleaned and the odour persists, consider replacing the magnesium rod with one made of aluminium.

Leaky Water Tank

— If puddles build up around the heater, water is found to be trickling down or shooting out of any part of the heater’s components, there is a leak.

— Thoroughly examine the heater’s water tank for any signs of cracks, dents, holes, or other abrasions or erosion that may be the source of the leak.

— If a leak is detected in the water tank, it must be replaced.

Electric Hot Water Heater

Repair Guide and Troubleshooting of Electric Water Heater

The electric hot water heater guide assumes that the heater was installed properly and operating as required before the development of any problem.

Electric hot water heater comes with two thermostats; the first one near the top of the tank, and the other one near the bottom of the tank. Both thermostats are covered by removable metallic cover plates. Moreover, they are firmly pressed against the metal wall of the tank.

The top thermostat often has a high limit switch that trips once the water is too hot. This shuts off electric supply to the upper as well as the lower heating elements. If you want to reset the high limit switch, simply press the red button.

With this background, below are some problems you may encounter and possible troubleshooting suggestions.

The Water Is Not Hot

Remove the cover plate of the upper thermostat and check If the high limit switch has tripped. If the switch has tripped, reset it.

Next check if there is power at the input terminals of the upper thermostat (usually marked L1 and L2). In case there is no power, check the wiring to the electric water heater or your circuit breakers.

If the problem persists, and the top thermostat is applying power to the upper heating element, check the voltage at the upper heating element. In case power is present at heating element yet the element cannot get hot, the heating element has a problem and should be replaced. However, If there is no power at the upper heating element, the upper thermostat should be replaced.

Inadequate Water Or The water Temperature Too Low

When the upper portion of the tank is hot, the top thermostat removes the power from the top heating element and transfers the same to the lower thermostat and the bottom heating element. When the lower thermostat has a problem, the tank is never heated and water supply is greatly reduced.

First check the power at the terminals of the upper thermostat where power is sent to the lower thermostat and the lower heating element. In case there is no power, replace the upper thermostat. On the other hand, if power is present at the upper thermostat, then check If the power reaches the lower heating element. If power is absent at the lower heating element replace the lower thermostat. In case power reaches the lower heating element but it does not turn hot, replace the lower heating element. A broken dip tube may as well be the source of the problem. Check if the dip tube is broken and replace it.

The Water Is Too Hot

One of the thermostats could be defective. First check the power supply at the upper heating element. If there is power at this element, the upper thermostat is definitely defective. Next check that there is power at the bottom heating element. If there is power, the thermostat has a problem.

You should also check if the thermostats are firmly pushed against the tank.

TPR RELIEF VALVE LEAKING

The TPR valve operates if either the pressure or the temperature gets too high. Where the inlet is directly fed from the mains with no pressure relieve valves, then the water becomes hot, it expands and the water flows back towards the main. In case of a blockage due to a defective valve or bypass, the increased water volume does not have anywhere to flow to and the pressure dramatically increases.

If you place an expansion tank in line at the water inlet, it will provide a place for the increased volume thereby preventing the operation of the relief valve.

It is also possible that the pressure of the city water has increased beyond the setting of the relief valve.

Banging or Popping Noise

Accumulation of scale on the heating elements can lead to various noises during the heating process. If you here a banging or popping sound, remove the heating elements and clean or replace them.

Odour

Some bacteria can react with the magnesium anode rod. This leads to production of a gas that smells like rotten eggs. Clean the tank with chlorine bleach or change the anode rod to aluminium.

Leaking Tank

The tank must be replaced at once.

Environmental Water Heaters

Energy Efficient Hot Water Heaters

Energy prices are always on the rise. Installing an environmental water heaters can help save the environment. New homes need to have efficient gas, solar, or heat pump hot water heaters. These new houses can no longer use the older models that use a great deal of energy to run and operate. Dux hot water has a number of environmental water heaters that use the latest technology to save energy.

The Hotlogic® controllers are able to adapt the changes in the weather conditions and the water usage. This saves money on energy and reduces carbon emissions. Dux is now recognized for having the most energy efficient water heaters in Australia.

There are things that help you determine what size of water heater is needed for your home:

• Size of the family/household against the size and hot water delivery capability of each hot water system;

• Location, climate and your available water heating energy source (Solar, Natural Gas, LPG, electricity) are very important;

• Available budget; and

• Where the system will be located inside and/or outside and questions like … do you have adequate north facing roof space for solar collectors?

The major types of domestic hot water systems are:

• These 3 options: electric storage tanks, electric boosted solar and heat pumps are typically for homes without access to natural gas.

• While these 3 options: gas storage tanks, gas continuous flow, gas boosted solar are typically for homes with natural gas connected.

If you are aiming in lessening the carbon footprint, then a solar water heater is the best option. Solar water heaters come with either a gas or electric booster to provide hot water on cloudy days or in times of high hot water demand. If your home does not have enough roof space for the installation of solar collections then a heat pump water heater can be used. This is a smart choice if you are looking to replace your external electric storage heater that uses a lot of power.

If you have natural gas service on your property then a high efficiency gas storage or a continuous flow water heater is another good option for your home. This heater has different installation options and can be installed by a plumbing professional. Although the up-front cost for gas hot water units installed maybe cheaper than a solar hot water system, solar was still the best choice and better option to make.

Water Heater Maintenance

Dux Hot Water System Maintenance

Let us not forget how much we rely daily on our hot water systems. Water heater maintenance is very important. We only feel the heating system’s significance when the unit broke down and the hot water is needed. This happens usually at the earliest hour of a very cold morning, on a holiday, etc. The hot water system may seem complicated. However, regular maintenance helps the system out prolong its lifespan. This is specifically in the case with continuous flow hot water systems. The unit does not store hot water and is unlikely to build up any pressure.

Regular service maintenance of the hot water system will ensure efficient operation. Every six months routine service can be performed by the owner.

  • Stand clear of the temperature pressure and relief valve drain pipe outlet.
  • Open the TPR for 10 seconds by lifting the easing level located on the valve.
  • Make sure the water discharges out of the drain pipe.
  • Lower the easing level – Make sure that the easing level closes properly.
  • Repeat the process for the expansion control valve.
  • Check the grill located on top of the water heater.
  • Make sure it is clear and free of debris.

Temperature, as well as pressure relief valves, are also called TPR or T&P valves. These are fitted to the hot water tank and act as a secondary safety measure. The TPR valve automatically vents the hot water if the temperature or the pressure becomes too great. This will prevent an explosion or spilling. If for some reason the TPR valves do not function properly the hot water heater is at serious risk. Hot water heaters with malfunctioning TPR valves may explode.

Inspecting the water heater or servicing any other part of it should be left to the professionals. Inline Plumbing & Electrical can help you!

How To Test The TPR And Replacement

Follow the manufacturer’s direction on the proper way to test the TPR valve. It should be done at least once every six months. The TPR valve needs to be replaced periodically depending upon the directions from the manufacturer. Many valves on the unit will have to be replaced once every two years.

How To Replace The TPR Valve

Again, any work that should be carried out on the hot water system needs to be done by a qualified technician or a plumber with license and qualifications. If your TPR valve needs substitution, call Inline Plumbing & Electrical to have it replaced.

Five Year Service

This service should also be conducted by a licensed professional. The team at Dux Service or its licensed agents are a great choice. If the total dissolved solids exceed 600 mg/L the recommended service is once every three years.

The following services should be performed:

  • Replacement of the TPR valve;
  • Replacement of both of the anodes;
  • Inspection and flushing out of the control valve if there is one;
  • Remove of debris and residue from the condensate gutter;
  • Cleaning of the gutter;
  • Cleaning of debris from the louvres and the evaporator;
  • Cleaning of the grill and the fan blades;
  • Complete drain and flush of the water heater.
