Water Heater Plumbing Service on October 28, 2024 in Jacksonville, (32208)

Plumber Notes: Customer currently has an AO SMITH 100 gallon 150,000 btu water heater that is giving error codes and customer would like it replaced. We could replace it with the same make and model but have found that this brand has been very unreliable and would recommend replacing with a different brand that has not given the problems the AO SMITH has After looking at what we have there at the location and consulting with our Rinnai engineer, we have determined it will take two cu 199 natural gas commercial on demand water heaters. we will also have to increase the size of the circulating pump to approximately 10 to 14 gallons per minute and capable of a at least 25 foot head. we will also have to reconfigure the gas line to except two heaters instead of one. both these water heaters have a eight year limited warranty on the heat exchanger, five year warranty on parts, one year on labor. also by having two water heaters, if one goes down, you will never be without hot water. We would turn the water off to the old heater and start draining it. As were draining it we will disconnect the vent and air lines to the heater as well as the gas and electrical to power the heater. The gas lines appear to be in good condition but if they need to be changed we will replace with new connections. Water lines are currently ran in copper. We will have to cut out the old water lines to be able to get the old heater out. To connect the new heater we will utilize pro press technology to connect new copper lines to new heater. We will connect vent to new heater and fill tank up before firing the tank up. Once we fire the heater up we will need to bleed the system to be able to make sure no air gaps are in the system. We will then check for leaks on the heater and everything should be working properly at this time…. read more

Once all new lines were ran and tied on to new main line along with waiting on glue time. We turned water back on to home and checked every fixture for any leaks. All cold lines tested in good working condition. Turned the power to the tankless water heater back on and no water was dispensing at any of the fixtures. We reset the existing heater and it would not stay on. We scanned QR code for the heater to discover that the tankless water heater in customer’s home has been discontinued. I informed homeowner that the heater will have to be replaced. We’ll return tomorrow to replace water heater.Arrived, 9/19/24 Homeowner let us into their home and we began by taking the front panel off the existing tankless heater to see if anything was left out of place and nothing was and so we called Rheem tech support for anything that could get the unit to heat, Jasmine through Rheem tech support walked me through the only resolution that would allow the heater to provide hot water by pulling the thermosistor if the unit has not been serviced. After speaking with homeowner she told me she has had the heater for 2 years and never had it serviced. We shut the power off to the heater and pulled the thermosistor plug then we turned power back on to the heater and allowed water to run for a minimum of 2 minutes. Tech support said after power to heater is turned back on it should take no more than a minute to heat. No hot water was dispensing for any fixtures. Once again I spoke with home owner about the heater and she wanted us to replace and install new tankless water heater. We made a run to Home Depot and got newer unit that was exactly the same as the old heater. After returning to the job with new heater and parts. We shut breaker to heater back off. Shut water off to the home and and to the heater, disconnected the electrical and cut the water lines. We dismounted old heater and installed new one in the same place. After mounting new heater, we reconnected the electrical, connected the water lines back together. After assembling new heater we waited half hour on glue time then turned water back on to home and turned water on to heater to flush out any debris and purged all air out of the lines. Once all the air and Debris cleared out we turned the breaker to the heater back on and no hot water was dispensing at fixtures. We came to conclusion that it is electrical which is beyond Betros plumbing. I informed homeowner that she will need electrician to come out and diagnose the electrical between main breaker and electrical lines for tankless heater. Homeowner will call shop in the morning after electrical is diagnosed for the heater and we’ll collect payment…. read more
