Hi Ben, May i ask if it is normal that continuous flow hot water system takes 30 sec or a minute or so to have luke warm hot water out? and take another approximately 5 minutes to have very hot water? Thanks Vic
Hi Wai Wai, that doesn't sound right. It should take 30 sec, depending how far the hot water system is from the outlet, but shouldn't take 5 mins to the desired temperature. Sometimes there is heat loss if the hot water system is a fair distance from the outlet. Regards, Ben
I've been facing this recently, but only on our kitchen mixer. I've just done some troubleshooting today and it seems that other mixer taps in the house work fine and will trigger the pilot light. The kitchen mixer doesn't appear to trigger the pilot light on our instant gas system and I suspect its due to lack of water flow (the new mixer that was replaced has much thinner braided hoses so I suspect this might be the cause). I'm going to try remove the pressure reducers in the hoses to try fix this, otherwise i'll have to replace the mixer hoses for larger diameter ones.
I have a tiny house but it takes ages for the hot water to get going. It is then cool enough for me to hold my hand under - not hot enough for washing up and barely hot enough for showers. It's brand new, so very very disappointing.
You’re a life saver! For years my hot water has been piss-weak and all this time I thought it was just a crappy system. We’ve just put up with it. Turns out the filter was ridiculously clogged. Gave it a clean and now it’s like we’ve got a new hot water system 😄😁 Thank you 🙏

Hi Ben Thanks for the great video. Our hot water has been going cold during hot showers - starts out hot and then goes cold after varying amounts of time. Sometimes turning the mixer off and then on again restores the hot water, but the length of time we get hot water varies. Yesterday, the hot water didn't drop out. But the day before, it did. So it's very unpredictable. Is this filter cleaning method something that might help resolve this? Thanks a lot 👍

Hi Ben, we recently had a brand new continuous flow gas hot water system installed in the communal laundry of our units, but the "hot" water that comes through is just warm. I can hold my hand under it and run it continuously, and it's not even as hot as I would wash dishes in. I've considered opening it up to have a look inside to see if there is some form of restriction on it, or if it's just a dodgy model (it _looks_ brand new). Considering how hard I had to fight just to get the broken hot water system replaced, I'm hesitant to bother our ineffectual property manager or our cheapskate land lord about it. Sometimes you just have to take matters into your own hands, after all. What would you suggest?

Hi Ben, I am enjoyed watching your contents. I can't get constant hot water from Reheem24 and I am wondering how much it costs for replacing the part, Water volume control motor of Reheem24 hot water unit. and How long does it take that job. How much it might be a total costs including part and labor everything. Location is corner of Shepperton Rd and Miller St in East Victoria Park 6100. F.Y.I 1. Symptom is hot water not coming out continually since I have changed all shower heads(3). 2. Error codes showing on the unit is keep varying 65, 68. 3. it was working perfectly before I changed shower heads. Cheers, Peter
Hi Peter, thanks for your comment. Have you removed the water savers in the new shower heads? Some shower heads have water savers/restrictors in them that would limit the hot water flow. It would be good to check that first. Hope that helps.

Nice one. I'm about to go to a B16 Rinnai from a crappy Dux LPG ProFlo (awful). I haven't seen a lot of good reviews on the Rinnai B26.. is it good and does the job? Dux have been trying to give me discounts to go with them but works out the same. Seems a no-brainer as every plumber or hot water installer tells me to avoid Dux at all cost and stick to Rinnai. This clip is very helpful for when I eventually install continuous flow.

Thanks, good to know. The LPG Bottles are 8 metres away and with all the twists/turns in the roof (and being a colorbond roof) makes it a lot more difficult to run a continuous flow because I need the bigger pipes installed. I'm now looking at the Hydrotherm Heat Pump (electric) and will modify to just run the stove off smaller bottles (like a BBQ). The energy efficiency (and no gas wastage) should pay for itself within 3 years. A shame as I was actually going to go for the Rinnai B20.

hi , we have a rinnai 26 , the water from the kitchen tap is hot but the bathrooms is lukewarm now would that because of the filter needing to be cleaned ? thanks di
Hi Diane, yes it could be the filter, so you can try cleaning it first and see if it works. If not, it could be heat loss caused by a long run to the bathroom or a faulty temp valve if they are installed. Hope that is helpful.
@@BeautifulPlumbing hi we tried cleaning the filter but it was really clean , it's funny how it's both bathrooms but laundry & kitchen are still hot , ensuite is right next to water system , could it have anything to do with the duplex they built next door , they have gas , funny it started when they moved in , weird

I've found if you have an outlet with a water saver (reducer) unit in the tap. It causes the instantaneous hot water to cut in and out. Hence going hot then cold
Hi mate, I have the Rinnai infinity 26. I just tried what you suggested and still no fix.The hot water service has a second filter which requires long nosed pliers to get out (I've seen it done by a plumber a few years ago) but I cannot seem to remember where it is... Are you able to advise? thanks! Monika
Hi Monika, it is best to contact your local plumber to get this sorted. You may have a temp valve installed and they do have filters also. Regards, Ben
i got a different case. water can goes through the filte, its cleaned but still no water coming out of the hot water tap at all. any ideas before calling a plumber?
ou Hi my gas hot water service is playing up its a 16E Bosch high flow heat as you go system hears example of what its doing if you turn on hot water it runs for 10 or so seconds then the pressure cuts down an there's no hot water is there anything I can do to fix the problem so I can have quick shower
Hi Stevo, you can try watching this video we made on BOSCH 10p ruclips.net/video/gzbxzVsYNaM/видео.html and see if that helps. Whereabouts are you living? Maybe we can come and have a look for you.
You still reply to this video, wow. I have a problem with my rinnai 26 (REU-V2626W) as long as 1 faucet or shower turn on, then it is ok, as soon as second one turn on, the first one got cut off, like no hot water at all let alone warmy one. Not a pleasant experience especially when im showering) do you regconise the problem? I turn the water inlet to near max already
Hi Hunter, thanks for your comment. Sorry for the late reply! It sounds to me like you might have flow restrictors in your shower rose and also in the outlet filters of your basin or kitchen tap. Try removing them and it should sort out the problem. Regards, Beautiful Plumbing

Hi Linda, sorry to hear! Have you managed to sort it out? Might need to get a plumber out to have a look.
Thanks , this is helpful information. I need help with my system, whilst the tap is on, the water alternates between cold and hot temperatures.
Do you think you’d be able to help with this please??
Thanks
Hi Farmagh. Sure can help. 80% of the time it is a restriction in the pipework somewhere. Give the office a call 1300 454 222 and we can come and sort it out.
Regards Ben
Great video. Don’t know if you can help me but I recently bought a houseboat with one of these water heaters on it, unfortunately can only use it to light the pilot lite when connected to 240 volts...is there a way to ignite within using 240 volts?

Hi Jayne. We had a black out once and I just ran it off a 12v inverter in my Hilux with an extension cord. It worked for me. They don't use much power.

I have a Bosch unit no filter
What do I turn off if I don't have the tap under unit to turn off?
Bosch 10P always have a problem to stop button getting stuck in.
Hi Anurag, if you have a stuck button on your Bosch 10p, we have made a short video on how to fix it ruclips.net/video/OwgmD-kXHFA/видео.html. Hope that helps!

We have a Rheem in our home and our hot water only lasts 10mins then goes cold afterwards. This will help lots.

Can we set the water temperature to 45 degree... thanks
Hi Ajay, yes you can put a controller on these Rinnai hot water systems and control the temperature that way
hi , we have a rinnai 26 , the water from the kitchen tap is hot but the bathrooms is lukewarm now would that because of the filter needing to be cleaned ? thanks di
Hi Diane, yes it could be the filter, so you can try cleaning it first and see if it works. If not, it could be heat loss caused by a long run to the bathroom or a faulty temp valve if they are installed. Hope that is helpful.
@@BeautifulPlumbing hi we tried cleaning the filter but it was really clean , it's funny how it's both bathrooms but laundry & kitchen are still hot , ensuite is right next to water system , could it have anything to do with the duplex they built next door , they have gas , funny it started when they moved in , weird
I moved into a brand new apartment and it has a tankless water heater but the heater won’t turn on and it’s so cold.
Cheers
Cheers mate. Good video.
Hi. I got chromagen solar hot water system. There is no green light on Controller. Some time it's turn on but still no hot water. Pump works when green light on but seems gas hot water system does not turn on. Could you please advise what could be a problem. Thx
Hi Abdul, I don't think it is a plumbing problem, it could an electrical fault. Maybe try to call your local electrician? Hope that helps!
Do you do the same to the B26 litre
Hi Manuel, thanks for the comment. Yes you do the same with B26. Do subscribe to our channel (if you haven't already) so that you get notified of our new videos :) tiny.cc/beautifulsubscribe
Filter clean no gung in it, water runs hot for 3 to 4 minutes the run cold for 5 to 8 seconds then bact to hot what would cause the problem?
I've found if you have an outlet with a water saver (reducer) unit in the tap. It causes the instantaneous hot water to cut in and out. Hence going hot then cold
Thank you Sir!
No worries.
Hi mate, I have the Rinnai infinity 26. I just tried what you suggested and still no fix.The hot water service has a second filter which requires long nosed pliers to get out (I've seen it done by a plumber a few years ago) but I cannot seem to remember where it is... Are you able to advise? thanks! Monika
Hi Monika, it is best to contact your local plumber to get this sorted. You may have a temp valve installed and they do have filters also. Regards, Ben
Hi Ben, thanks, will do :)
i got a different case. water can goes through the filte, its cleaned but still no water coming out of the hot water tap at all. any ideas before calling a plumber?
Did you find the cause of this?
ou
Hi my gas hot water service is playing up its a 16E Bosch high flow heat as you go system hears example of what its doing if you turn on hot water it runs for 10 or so seconds then the pressure cuts down an there's no hot water is there anything I can do to fix the problem so I can have quick shower
Hi Stevo, you can try watching this video we made on BOSCH 10p ruclips.net/video/gzbxzVsYNaM/видео.html and see if that helps. Whereabouts are you living? Maybe we can come and have a look for you.
Good on ya mate. Thaks
Ben Webster no worries. Did you get it sorted??
Chur Bro. That worked perfectly. Even on a Bosch system !!!!!
Hi my hot water is not working
Hi there, sorry to hear, have you managed to sort it out?
No one ever talks about how very loud these constant hot water systems are?
You still reply to this video, wow. I have a problem with my rinnai 26 (REU-V2626W) as long as 1 faucet or shower turn on, then it is ok, as soon as second one turn on, the first one got cut off, like no hot water at all let alone warmy one. Not a pleasant experience especially when im showering) do you regconise the problem? I turn the water inlet to near max already
Hi Hunter, thanks for your comment. Sorry for the late reply! It sounds to me like you might have flow restrictors in your shower rose and also in the outlet filters of your basin or kitchen tap. Try removing them and it should sort out the problem. Regards, Beautiful Plumbing
