Q/A – Why
can I not use
a 20lt to run
the whole
house
A20lt unit runs from 20lt/
min on the cool setting to
10lt/min on the hot.
If you are running 8lt/min
then the back pressure will
switch off the unit.
If you are running 10lt then
you must have it on the hot
setting or it will cut out.

Dewhot gas geyser trouble shooting for customers
Faults are either Electical - Flat Batteries,
Physical - Flow pressure low or blocked,
Mechanical - Damaged or faulty component
Symptom Possible fault Solution
Geyser is totally dead when
the water is turned on
1. Batteries are inserted incorrectly
2. Batteries are totally flat
• Insert correctly, rear battery must be + down and front battery + up
• Replace with a brand new set of good quality batteries such as duracell
Ignitors are firing, but the
geyser is not igniting
1. Batteries are too weak to lift and hold the solenoid
2. Gas supply is low or not turned on
• Replace with a brand new set of good quality batteries such as duracell
• Turn on the gas or replace the bottle
Ignitors are firing, geyser is
coming on and going out
after a very short time
1. Water inlet may be blocked at the water junction
2. The gas regulator may be blocked, particularly if a new
bottle has just been fitted without first cracking the seal
and letting a little gas bleed off
• Remove the water inlet pipe and check the sieve is not blocked on the geyser
• Change the regulator
Water is flowing through the
geyser, the LCD is illuminating
but the geyser does not ignite
1. The micro switch is not activating enough to switch the
geyser on
2. On-Off switch may be faulty
• Turn the RH knob to the right (clockwise) to increase the pressure and activate the
geyser. This maybe experienced where you have low water pressure
• Call your installer
Geyser comes on and after a
short time the water comes
through cold
1. The geyser temperature is set too high and the addition
of any cold water will shut it off, either due to back
pressure or the temperature has risen too high and the
geyser shuts itself off
• The temperature with the hot water on only must be lowered, by turning down the
flame. Do this by turning the LH Knob to the left (anti-clockwise) until the temperature
is in the correct range. (refer to the chart on our website for the correct temperature
setting; http://www.dewhot.co.za/compare_geysers.pdf
The geyser is igniting loudly 1. The gas may be low or the gas regulator may be faulty • Check gas level in bottle if low change
• If still no change, change the regulator
The geyser is noisy
when running
1. The water is causing resonance as it flows through
the radiator
• Change the flowrate setting, RH knob either slightly to the left or right unit it disappears
My geyser is very hot in the
basin and cool for the bath
1. The setting and the use of the geyser needs to
be understood
• Please watch the video “how to control the temperature” from the website;

Cascading
• To run a household with its multiple requirements a solution is to cascade.
• Use an 8lt to run a kitchen, a 10lt for the shower and run both to the bath giving
18lt/min. Fit non return valves so that the kitchen and shower can only run off
their units

Safety instructions:
If you smell gas:
• Turn off the gas cock.
• Do not operate any electrical switches.
• Do not telephone from inside the
danger area.
• Open windows and ventilate room.
• From outside, call the gas company and
your approved installer.
Do not use or store easily combustible
materials in the vicinity of the appliance.
Installation and Operating
Instructions
Installation and servicing of the appliance
may only be carried out by a registered
gas installer.
The appliance should be regularly
maintained in order to ensure that it
remains in perfect and safe working order.
If there is a risk of freezing, the appliance
must be switched off and drained. If the
appliance has not been drained during a
cold spell then when it is switched on again
check that it produces hot water. If problems
occur, contact your installer
Function
This water heater is fitted with automatic
electronic ignition that provides for easy
commissioning. All that is required is to
switch on a hot water tap.
The appliance will then ignite automatically
as soon as a hot water tap is turned on.
The igniters fire (tick, tick, tick sound) the
gas solenoid opens (clack sound) and then
a second later the burners ignite and the
ingniters stop firing. When you switch the
water off the gas solenoid closes (faint
thud noise).
The appliance is substantially more
economical because there is no pilot flame
and only remains lit while water flows, thus
no further gas is used, in contrast with
conventional appliances which have a pilot
flame that remains alight permanently.
Air in the gas pipe when the appliance is
commissioned must be vented, this can
cause ignition failure. In such cases,
the hot water tap should be turned off and
then on again so that the appliance repeats
the ignition cycle. The procedure should be
repeated as necessary until the gas pipe is
purged of air and ignition is achieved.
