Limit Safety
Hot Water is not Hot 85 +/- 15°C (185° +/- 5° F)
NOTE:
The hot water in the
ECOSTREAM
Water Treatment System
should be at 85 +/- 15°C
(185° +/- 5° F) under normal operating conditions and while NOT in Sleep Mode.
The Hot temperature set point is 85°C +/- 15°C (185°F +/- 5° F) and is controlled by a thermostat
on the side of the tank.
There is a resettable overload or high limit safety above the thermostat on the side of the tank
that will trip to prevent damage to the unit if the tank is dry heated (turned on without water in
it).
The
ECOSTREAM
Water Treatment
does NOT have Extra Hot capability and the maximum hot
temperature is 87°C (189°F).
It typically takes 10 minutes for the 500W to heat the 1.6 Liter of room temperature (ambient)
water to the 85°C (185°F) set point.
Possible Reason
Solution
No power to heater elements
Check that the Red Heater and Compressor
switch is on.
Turn Red Heater and Compressor Switch on.
I = ON
Hot Tank Overload Tripped
Overload is a safety feature to
ensure the tank does not
overheat.
Overload will “click” when pushed. The overload is
automatically reset when pressed.
