EXPANSION CONTROL VALVE 
In many areas, including South Australia, Western Australia and scaling water 
areas, an expansion control valve is fitted to the cold water line to the water 
heater. The expansion control valve may discharge a small quantity of water 
from its drain line during the heating period instead of the temperature pressure 
relief valve on the water heater. 
 
Operate the easing lever on the expansion control valve once every six 
months.  It is very important you raise and lower the lever gently. The 
expansion control valve should be checked for performance or replaced at 
intervals not exceeding 5 years, or more frequently in areas where there is a 
high incidence of water deposits. 
 
SERVICING 
For safe and efficient operation the water heater should be serviced annually 
by your nearest Rheem Service Department or their Accredited Service Agent. 
Only genuine replacement parts should be used on this water heater. 
 
 Warning: Servicing of a gas water heater should only be carried out by 
authorised personnel. 
 
COLLECTOR GLASS 
Ensure the glass on your solar collectors is free of dust, salt spray or any other 
matter, which may reduce the effectiveness of the solar collectors. If the 
collector glass becomes dirty, hose down or if the solar collectors are 
accessible, wash the collector glass with water and a soft brush when the solar 
collectors are cool. Have any trees trimmed which may shade the solar 
collectors.
