How to Replace the Flow Sensor in your Stiebel Eltron Tankless Water Heater
Просмотров 22 тыс.2 года назад
How to swap out the flow sensor on your Stiebel Eltron tankless water heater. This is pretty much the same for all water heaters of this type. It's not super hard but there are a couple weird things that had me puzzled when I tried it for the first time. I hope this helps you! I should have mentioned that before replacing the flow sensor, you can try doing a "flush" to clean out the scale in yo...

    WOW!!! The algorithm found you for me and I’m so glad. I bought a bunch of cement products a few years ago but have procrastinated because I haven’t wanted to make stuff and fail, mostly because I live in high altitude where it snows up to 4’ - 5’ deep. I’ve heard of cement projects cracking up when exposed to snow so I figured there must be a certain recipe. I suppose diving in and just doing it would be a good start.

    Nice video. One issue leaves me perplexed. You say your stuff made of papercrete is durable, lasting forever. What makes me a bit baffled is that it is general technical standard that fibers added to concrete/ portland cement, such as fiberglass for example, must be "alkali resistant" fiberglass, so that it is not eroded by the highly alkaline cement. Wouldn't it also degrade paper fibers, so that they become fragile with time? Thanks!

    • @DromNoms

      @@DromNoms I've been trying to find answers on this matter online, but can't find any so far. One problem that I did hear about was that paper in concrete can have its place, & serve as a way to use available, recycle materials. But it's best not to subject it to a wet environment, because the paper in it can make it susceptible to mold. I think if you waterproof it a bit, by soaking the paper in acrylic fortifier for concrete before adding to the papercrete, it would help, & so would a few coats of sealing. I think any fibers added to cement that are not alkali resistant, will eventually disintegrate & leave dust in their place. However, if you have added enough additional aggregate, such as perlite, it won't matter. But if you only have paper, cement, water, you could be in trouble if the paper disintegrates, because cement + water is not too firm. I'm not sure how long it would take to disintegrate. I have heard of people who used old clothing dipped in a very wet cement, instead of paper, & the fibers disintegrated. However, they clearly also had way too much water, to have such a wet cement, so who knows what the real problem was. If you have had pots hold up long term for you, that alone will tell you a lot.

Not hard units to work on.... when I turn on hot water, all the lights in the entire neighborhood dim. 150 amps. LMAO! "HONEY why are the LIGHT DIMMING?"

Especially the part about lifting the right side to disconnect the top part of the sensor. Mince had two screws to loosen first. Worked like a charm. Cheers!

    Do you know if the flow meter can be bypassed? It seems if you don't have enough flow, it won't signal for heat. As others have noted, some water appliances seem to not have enough flow rate. So multiple points of use must be on. Thx.

    Cool video! I greatly think you If I would be allowed... concrete gets strength from it's aggregates. I would suggest sand, concrete, and concrete bonding agent for final resurfacing. Will produce a stronger but sandy finish. Spray da adhesive + water on sculpture plus add a glue of adhesive to topping mix. I've tried ot without the sand, the Portland fluffs off, little staying strength.

    your air pressure control is the primary consideration for the bubble distribution in your product; the secondary consideration is the steel wool substrate (is it uniform, stepped, or uncontrolled ?) and the third is the brand (formulation) of soap (assuming you are using at least a decent foaming soap).
