*This diagram illustrates tankless water heater design concepts only and does not accurately represent
the water heater’s physical description.
1. A hot water fixture is turned on.
2. Water flows through the heater.
3. The water flow sensor detects the water flow.
4. The computer initiates the fan motor and gas valve to let gas flow through the heater and sends a
signal to the igniter to create an ignition spark.
5. The gas ignites and flames appear within the burner chamber.
6. Water is heated as it flows through the heat exchanger.
7. Using thermistors to measure temperatures throughout the water heater, the computer modulates
the gas and water valves to ensure proper output water temperature and hot water outflows.
8. When the fixture is turned off, the unit shuts down.
