Your very welcome

Glad you liked it!

That is very likely. Also maybe the circulating pump is not working any more and possibly your booster has stopped functioning.

@orbitplumbing thank you for the reply I will look into it.

You are welcome

Your welcome

You will need to replace it

I would say you might have the hot and cold on the wrong sides. Normally the taps turn opposite directions for the sake of aesthetics. Normally ceramic disc taps will have a lever that turns 1/4 turn. Some might come with cross handle tap handles. This might be where the confusion is.

@Alabaster335 it actually sound like you have an instantaneous hot water service and it is having a gas supply issue. Would that be the case at all?

@@orbitplumbing nope just a regular electric HWS.

Lol. Thanks

Thanks so much mate. I'm in Hervey Bay in Queensland nowadays.

@@orbitplumbing I'm about 3 and a half hours south unfortunately

@@codyaq2 glad I could help

@@orbitplumbing Would you have to drain the tank before doing this, also is there a chance I wouldnt be able to get the white seals on each pipe off?

@codyaq2 you can do if you want. Make sure you turn off the power at the switchboard first. It's pretty easy to just do it quickly if your confident to do it that way.

@@orbitplumbing Replaced the tempering valve on the weekend with the help of my dad, thanks again for your video, gave us good insight :)

Those ones normally come with a special tool that has like a 4 prong round flat head screw driver. If you look at it closely you will see that there are little grooves on the outside of the filter. Get a small screw driver and try turn the whole filter anti clockwise

Just put a pipe wrench on the spindle. That should have the strength to unscrew just about anything including any silicone sealing the wall. I have a 12" pipe wrench. If you check my other tap videos I'm sure I use it. Hope that helps

That's great, I'm so glad I could help you out.

There are all different size threads. I'm not sure what you would use a 12mm on except for a different sized threaded set up. 13mm fibre washer is what you need for taps, 8.5mm o rings

Glad you enjoyed

Glad you enjoyed it

Get some thin rubber matt or fabric and get a pipe wrench on to it. The rubber matr goes between the cover plate and the pipe wrench to prevent it getting scratched

@@orbitplumbing That worked like a charm! Tried WD40 and hot and cold methods and thought I'd never get the thing unstuck. Thanks heaps.

You can buy new rubbers for it. If you take the wing nut off you should be able to dissemble it and reassemble it with new washers

It sounds like your piezo might not be working

At this point I would probably just replace it. You may be able to find little bits and pieces like that at bunnings.

I'm so glad I could help you.

This is probably because you have too much pressure in the mains supply. That can be easily fixed by getting a 500kpa pressure limiting valve installed on your water meter.

Cheers@@orbitplumbing

Lol

If it's leaking water, there's a high possibility the tank hus rusted through and it needs to be replaced. Where is the water coming from?

@@orbitplumbing it's from upper side I saw near outside downwards below the ignition button

I have same water heater

Yes it sounds like the tank has burst mate. Sorry but that is not fixable. You will need a new unit

I just did mine, had to install washers, the thin ones, never had any, but looked at the shower head area, had them their, just put them in the top area and no leaks no falling down anymore, last repair must have not put them back in :(

Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching. Much appreciated!

Glad it helped you out.

All good. Glad I could help.

My apologies it has taken so long to respond. Yes, you may be able to use your fingers or any other tool where you can get a tight grip on it. My suggestion would be to either use a shifter or multi grips if it is to tight to do by hand

No worries.

No worries at all

Glad you enjoyed it

Thankyou for watching

That is slightly incorrect. The unit automatically sits at 65° to make sure bacteria can not grow. The dial actually makes the unit go a bit harder but that also increases the temperature a little bit. You would not want your water over 50° at the tap as that can become very dangerous. In Australia they need to be fitted with a tempering valve at the hot water outlet. This mixes a touch of cold water in with the very hot water to bring the temp down to a safe level. You cant really make the water hotter than what you recieve from the unit on max setting.

I'm so glad I could help.

Glad it helped

No worries at all. Glad I could help.

No worries at all

Thankyou

All Good
