I have a Bradford White Model URG240T6N water heater with a Honeywell heat controller pictured below. Can I put a timer on this thing? Does the pilot go out with a timer, or how does that work? What is the "com" on the bottom half of the controller? Can I connect a timer to that?
There are both mechanical and electrical controls that can be added. If you search online for the timer you are considering you can probably find the installation instructions. Here is one I found which mechanically rotates the temperature setting dial.
I want to split the hot water coming out from my water into 2 lines. So abasically install a T fitting from the hot water pipe coming out of water heater and then having two lines going to separate parts of the house (I want to be able to shut off 2 sections of my house separately instead of shutting down the whole house). I know I have to run a new pipe from water heater to the new location, but is this ok?Read More
Had a service tech over to track down a leak on our tankless WH (Rheem). They replaced the internal recirc pump. It appeared to be fine for a couple of days, checked again a few minutes ago and I am noticing water still on the floor. Checked the recirc pump and it's dry, no leak there. Kept tracking the leak down and I followed it to the top of the unit, it appears it's been leaking/condensing at the flue vent. Is this something that can happen with these? I have not noticed it, but it appears to have been happening for awhile now looking at the build up in the area. Does a drain hose need to be attached to the white nipple/barb on the side of the flue vent?
