Check the items below before making a service call. You will be charged for
attending to any condition or fault that is not related to manufacture or failure of a
part.
NOT ENOUGH HOT WATER (OR NO HOT WATER)
attending to any condition or fault that is not related to manufacture or failure of a
part.
NOT ENOUGH HOT WATER (OR NO HOT WATER)
Insufficient sunlight
Insufficient sunlight due to cloudy
weather during summer months or low
solar energy contribution in winter
months may mean you will need to switch
on the booster heating unit more often.

· Booster heating unit not operating
Inspect the isolating switch marked “HOT
WATER” or “WATER HEATER”
switchboard and the booster switch (if
one is installed) and ensure they are
turned “ON”. Check the electrical tariff to
which the unit is connected. If on Off-
Peak remember heating hours are
restricted (refer to “Off-Peak Tariff” on
page 12). Check the fuse marked “water
heater”.

· Twin element models
For twin element non simultaneous models power must be available to the top
heating unit circuit at all times for this water heater to operate as designed.

Solar Control Unit
Check the power outlet to the solar control unit is switched on.
Collectors shaded
If trees or other objects shade the solar collectors or if the glass is dirty, the
effectiveness of the solar collectors will be greatly reduced. Clean the collector
glass, trim trees or relocate the solar collectors if the obstruction is permanent.

· Collector area is too small
For most installations, the number of solar collectors recommended in Rheem
literature has been proven to provide the required solar energy to meet the
average family needs. However, in some circumstances, it may be necessary to
install an additional solar collector.
