Principle of Operation:
When a hot water faucet is opened, the water flow through
the heater causes the gas valve to open. At the same time
the hydro-generator activates the electronics which sends
a spark to the pilot. The flame sensor confirms the pilot has
been lighted and allows the first two burners to come on.
The flame sensor confirms correct activation and all burners
come on. The pilot goes off. The heat exchanger coils absorb
the heat generated by the burners and transfer heat to the
water. When the hot water faucet is shut off, the gas valve
automatically closes and the burners turn off. Your hot water
faucet is an ignition key to activate the water heater, giving
you control over your hot water energy use. Every time you
turn off your hot water faucet, the energy consumption of
your hot water returns to zero.
