Optimal operation, economical use of resources, and durability of its operation depend on the correct setting of the gas water heater. Consider the adjustment of devices that have two toggle switches on the front panel - water and gas regulators, a semiautomatic device type.
Adjustment of any gas heater should start with water regulation. The nominal value of this parameter is indicated in the technical data sheet supplied with the device, usually 6, 10, 12 liters. In order to correctly adjust the device to the required value, you need to open a valve with hot water, it is important to observe the condition - only one valve should be opened if you have several points of water intake. Using the water toggle switch, set the value corresponding to the nominal value. After setting, the tap closes.
But one must take into account the fact that the head of the line flow is different for everyone and there are no general rules for setting.
Some experts advise, when the pressure of the system is weak, but the heater turns on, the handle of the water toggle switch should be set to maximum, and the gas switch should be gradually turned from minimum until the temperature that suits you is reached.
In order to regulate the gas supply to the device, you need to set the gas regulator knob on the front panel of the device to the minimum value. After connecting to the mains (for such models as Ariston and Electrolux), or installing batteries (Neva, Neva transit, Selena, Ladogaz, Oasis, Junkers, Bosch Therm, etc.), you need to open the gas valve. Then you need to open the hot water tap, the water heater will turn on and start heating.

The next step is to use a temperature measuring device to set the gas regulator so that the temperature difference at the inlet and outlet of the device corresponds to 25 degrees.
In this case, one should take into account the fact that heating does not occur immediately, you should wait a while. During the subsequent operation of the column, the temperature at the outlet of the device is changed using a hot water valve. Including a larger flow, it decreases, while a smaller one increases.
If, after the above actions, the set temperature is not satisfactory, changes must be made only with the help of a water toggle switch. It should be borne in mind that to increase the life of the column, it is not recommended to set the temperature above 50 degrees.
Instantaneous water heaters are quite inertial; when turned on, do not expect that a hot stream will immediately flow, you should wait a while.
Conversely, if you turn on hot water at the tap, it will become hot after a while.
If a short time passes between switching off - switching on, you must be careful, do not put your hands under the tap so as not to burn yourself, as after switching off a certain amount of liquid remains in the system. The inertia should be taken into account when adjusting the temperature in order to obtain the nominal difference at the inlet and outlet, there is no rush here, it is necessary to accurately select the appropriate position of the regulator, when the obtained result does not change for several minutes.
When the water heater operates on liquefied gas and the pressure does not correspond to the nominal one, it is adjusted in front of the nozzle. To do this, remove the casing, loosen the locking screw, connect the pressure gauge to the measuring pipe. Next, remove the seal from the adjusting screw, turn on the column, setting the regulator to maximum, open all hot water taps.The pressure is adjusted using the adjusting screw. This procedure should be performed by a specialist.
Top center knob for Winter - Summer mode
Some devices, such as Ariston, Oasis, Dion, Vector JSD20-W, etc. have a winter-summer mode, are equipped with a temperature corrector, on the Ariston column it is located below, on Dione, Oasis - on the front panel. Depending on the season, the knob is set to the plus position in winter and minus in summer. This option allows optimal use of resources.
Let us consider the method of setting up an automatic gas heater using the example of Ariston fast evo ont b 14, JUNKERS Bosch WR. The main difference is that only one control toggle switch is built into the control panel - regulation of water temperature and power, it is also an on / off control. Turning the knob clockwise increases the temperature, counterclockwise decreases.
When the device is turned on, self-diagnosis of the gas-water unit and other column systems occurs. In the event of a malfunction, the device is locked and the red LED lights up. Before switching on for the first time, it is necessary to adjust the gas inlet pressure. To do this, close the gas valve, loosen the screw in the gas block and insert the pressure gauge into the gas pressure take-off. Then open the gas valve, turn on the column by opening the water intake and make sure that the pressure corresponds to the indicated figure in the instructions.
To adjust the maximum and minimum values, you need to do all the above manipulations, then remove the batteries, put the microswitch in the off position, insert the batteries into the compartment. Open one hot water valve, turn on the microswitch, adjust the maximum pressure on the burner with the orange screw. Then turn it off again, adjust the minimum in the same way, turn the microswitch to the off position, if the indicator glows orange, then the settings are saved.
Setting up the Neva 4511 consists in regulating the flow rate of the jet flowing through the device using a water toggle switch. By setting it to a minimum, the consumption decreases, the device turns on at a value of at least 2.5 liters per minute.
Neva 4511 - control panel
When set to the maximum value, the flow increases, and the column turns on when the flow is at least 6 liters per minute. At intermediate positions, switching on occurs in the interval between these figures. If the line pressure is low, the manufacturer recommends setting the regulator to the minimum flow rate.
Water heater Termet 19 01 is equipped with water-gas fittings, which automatically maintains the set temperature at a constant level. This block has an automatic flow regulator with smooth regulation. When the knob is set all the way to the right, a small flow, 5.8 liters per minute, flows at the highest possible temperature.
If you need to reduce the flow, you need to screw on the tap. By setting the handle to the extreme left, a large flow flows, 11.5 liters per minute, with a reduced temperature. By setting the toggle switch to the middle position, the temperature changes in inverse proportion to the amount of water. If the flow control toggle switch is set arbitrarily, it can be changed with the gas control knob. If the Termet gas water heater does not ignite, we advise you to read the article at the link.
In addition, watch the video on setting up (adjusting) the Bosch gas column:
Quality control inspector Posts: 772
CoVlig and EGS hit the spot. The diaphragm is 3/4 torn. It’s even amazing how it still worked.
Many thanks to all participants for their participation. The topic has been resolved.
The same trouble = ((Tell me where you can find the membrane!
Consider one of the first and most common problems with gas columns, as a weak spark discharge or its absence.Such a malfunction of the gas water heater is quite common and it does not appear after a year or two after using the equipment, but after a few months.
Symptoms are generally as follows. Yesterday the gas water heater worked like a clock, but today it suddenly did not turn on. You close the hot tap, open it again - the column is working. Then, every day, more and more such manipulations have to be done (opening - closing the tap). And finally the moment came when it stopped working altogether. Then just call the master or do it yourself.
After removing the cover of the gas column and opening the tap, you see that there is no spark discharge. So why did the spark disappear, what is the malfunction?
1. A reason not related to the failure of any part. 1.1. Insufficient water pressure.
First, check the position of the temperature regulator knob, which is responsible for the water flow pressure at the inlet to the gas column. At low pressure, the column will not turn on. Turn the handle counterclockwise all the way to the far left, and then turn on the tap. If the column has started working, it is likely that there is a weak head in suitable pipes and the reason should not be looked for in the column.
1.2. Limescale build-up in the radiator.
When using hard, lime water, scale can form on the walls of the heat exchanger, which also affects the creation of the pressure required for the operation of the gas column. To remove scale, you will need to remove the heat exchanger, I note that you will have to disassemble almost the entire column. Prepare a 10% citric acid solution: stir 100 grams of lemon in one liter of warm water. Pour into the tubes of the heat exchanger and leave for 15 minutes. Drain the solution and rinse thoroughly with water. Cleaning is recommended at least once a year.
2. Souring and immobility of the stem.
Nitrous oxide can form on the stem located next to the microswitch. This, in turn, affects the mobility of the tongue and the closing-opening of the circuit contacts. To clean the stem, remove the microswitch and release the fixed tab.
3. Violation of the electrical circuit between the microswitch and the control unit.
Also, a malfunction of the gas column associated with the absence of a spark can be caused by a breakdown in the circuit between the switch and the control unit. To do this, check the terminals connecting them and the switch wires. Possible oxidation of contact points.
4. Faulty microswitch.
The switch is a consumable item, it breaks down rather quickly. Fortunately, its cost is not high, about 150 rubles. Replacing it is simple: disconnect the terminal and unscrew the two screws.
Malfunctions, which are less common, are the failure of the solenoid valve and the electronic control unit. We will consider them in a separate article.
If your automatic gas water heater does not turn on for some unknown reason, then this article is for you. Let us consider the main causes of malfunctions and possible ways to restore the equipment performance. Do-it-yourself gas water heater repair using Termaxi as an example. Before repair work, do not forget to turn off the cold water and gas supply taps to the column.
Like any automatic speaker, it runs on a pair of 1.5 Volt batteries each. If the gas water heater does not turn on, check the batteries. They could be discharged. Usually the batteries last for 6-12 months with intensive use. To do this, either replace the batteries with new ones or knock the shrunken ones against each other to seal them. Thus, the capacity is added. Install and check. If such a procedure did not bring results, then move on ...
First you need to remove the protective casing, which is attached with self-tapping screws. But first, we remove three regulators (temperature, water pressure and the number of working nozzles) by pulling them towards ourselves.
Since the wires are short, we take out the temperature display, the power button and the signal light.To do this, press down on the latches, and all parts will come out of the lock.
Inspect for mechanical damage to the wires. Then check the contact at the terminals of the battery compartment. To do this, remove the terminals and wipe the contacts with alcohol.
Open the hot water tap, if the gas water heater does not turn on, there may be several reasons.
The most common one is that the microswitch is out of order. It is he who is responsible for supplying power to the piezo element. The switch is fixed with two screws to the body of the water block.
It is easy to find out whether he is working or not. Open the hot water tap and press the microswitch foot, hold.
You should hear a click, as a result of which numbers appear on the temperature sensor, and the LED lights up. The nozzles will light up. If so, the switch is OK.
If this does not happen, you need to replace the switch. To do this, disconnect the connector and unscrew the 2 screws.
Buy and install the same. If everything works, congratulations. DIY repair of the gas water heater is completed. If not, then remove the water block. Don't touch the gas one yet. In this Termaxi model, you need to unscrew 2 nuts and 2 screws.
In the Termaxi column, the water block is attached to the nozzles, so we also remove it. We disconnect the terminals that interfere and pull out the block. Attention! A spring is installed between the gas-water block. When removing the water block, do not lose it.
Check the condition of the stem. If it is clogged, flush it out. If you see mechanical damage, replace it. To do this, unscrew the 4 screws on the case.
There is a membrane, under it is a white elastic band. After removing it, unscrew the nut and remove the stem.
If there are deposits of salt or dirt on the membrane, clean them.
Upon examination of the membrane, damage was found in this case.
We install in place of the old one and assemble all the elements of the water block in the reverse order. We install it in the column, connect the connectors, check the functionality. The column lights up automatically when you open a hot water tap. The sensors are working. The gas water heater has been repaired!
It remains to put on the case and use.

Despite the widest range of electrical heating appliances on the market, the gas water heater is still one of the most popular means of heating a house and providing it with hot water. This is a fairly economical option, since it allows you to simultaneously provide several drainage points in the house. Another advantage of gas water heaters can be considered the fact that they allow you to use hot water, practically unlimited, without any restrictions.

Two pipes are connected to the gas column. The first of them is designed for gas supply, the second - for cold water supply. In addition, a pair of burners is located at the bottom, one auxiliary and one main.
Important! The device of the gas column can be different, depending on the method of ignition - it (ignition) can be electronic, manual and using a piezoelectric element.
Such devices are designed to provide domestic and industrial facilities with hot water. The essence of their work is quite simple: cold water from the pipeline enters the column heat exchanger, where it is heated by burners (they are located under the heat exchanger). As you know, fire needs oxygen, therefore, so that the burners do not go out, the column is connected to the ventilation system of the house / apartment. The exhaust gas is eliminated by means of a special chimney, which is combined exclusively with a gas water heater.

All the described types of columns function somewhat differently.
So, if the device is turned on manually, that is, the gas has to be ignited with matches, the burner will ignite from the fact that you turn the fuel supply valve. Although it is worth noting that such designs have become outdated a long time ago. Modern designs are equipped with either an electronic ignition or a piezoelectric element.
New models are activated at the touch of a button located on the front panel of the device. Piezo ignition creates a spark that ignites the pilot. In the future, everything happens in automatic mode - the tap opens, the column lights up, hot water begins to flow.
If the gas water heater is fired up electronically, then it is perhaps the most reliable and durable device. The system is turned on by means of a pair of batteries supplying the charge necessary for the formation of a spark. No buttons, no matches, the only thing you need to do to turn it on is to turn on the tap. In most cases, batteries last a very long time because the energy required to charge is minimal.
