Principle of Operation:
When a hot water faucet is opened, the flow of water through
the heater causes the gas valve to open. At the same time
a microswitch is activated which sends a spark to the pilot.
The flame sensor confirms that the pilot has been lighted
and allows the first two burners to ignite. The flame sensor
confirms correct activation and all burners ignite. The pilot
goes out. The power exhaust system runs as long as the
burners are on. 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, followed
immediately by the exhaust system. Your hot water faucet is
an ignition key to turn on the water heater, giving you control
over your hot water energy use. Every time you turn off your
hot water faucet, the energy consumption for hot water
returns to zero.
