ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER MODEL TYPE Congratulations for choosing a Rheem ® water heater. Your Rheem solar Loline™ water heater is designed for the solar collectors to be roof mounted and the solar storage tank to be installed at ground level.
ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER 5 HOTTER WATER INCREASES THE RISK OF SCAL D INJURY This water heater can deliver water at temperatures which can cause scalding. Check the water temperature before use, such as when entering a shower or filling a bath or basin, to ensure it is suitable for the application and will not cause scald injury.
ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER 6 SAFETY This water heater is supplied with a thermostat, an over-temperature cut-out, and a combination temperature pressure relief valve. These devices must not be tampered with or removed. The water heater must not be operated unless each of these devices is fitted and is in working order.
ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER 7 TO TURN OFF THE WATER HEATER If it is necessary to turn off the water heater: • Shut down the gas control (refer to “Close Down Procedure” on page 51 ). • Close the gas isolation valve at the inlet to the gas control.
ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER 8 PIPE WORK AND INSULATION The solar hot and solar cold pipe work bet ween the solar storage tank and the solar collectors MUST BE of copper and fully insulated with closed cell polymer insulation or similar (minimum thickn ess 13 mm).
ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER 9 BLEEDING THE SOLAR COLLECTORS It is necessary to purge air from the collector circuit: • When the water heater is to be turned on and the solar collectors and solar hot and solar cold pipe work have been drained. • After maintenance has been conducted on the pipe work and ai r has entered the system.
ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER 10 FREEZE PRO TECTION The system when installed in areas s ubject to freeze conditions must be installed with the solar hot and solar cold pipes fully insulated with closed cell polymer insulation (minimum thickness 13 mm) to offer protection against freeze damage.
HOW YOUR WATER HEATER WORKS The Rheem solar Loline system has its vitr eous enamel lined solar storage tank installed at ground level, remotely from the solar collectors. As the sun heats the water in the solar collectors the increase in temperature activates the circulator.
HOW YOUR WATER HEATER WORKS 12 PIEZO IGNITION The “Piezo” push button igniter makes lighting the pilot flame of your water heater very easy. Simply follow the instructions on the label attached to the back of the access door. There is no need for matches to light the water heater.
REGULAR CARE TEMPERATURE PRESSURE REL IEF VALVE This valve is near the top of the water heater and is essential for its safe operation. It is possible for the valve to release a little water through the drain line during each heating period. This occurs as the water is heated and expands by approximately 1/50 of its volume.
REGULAR CARE 14 EXPANSION CONTROL VALVE In many areas, including South Australia, Western Australia and scaling water areas, an expansion control valve is fitted to the cold water line to the water heater.
REGULAR CARE 15 FLUSHING THE SOLAR COLLECTORS It may be necessary to flush the solar collectors if there is sediment in the water supply. This should be conducted in th e morning, within three hours of sunrise, when the water temperature inside the solar collector(s) is lower.
TIMER OPERATION FUNCTIONS OF THE TIMER The timer is an accurate, electronic device which allows up to six (6) ON-OFF periods to be set per day. It is recommended only one (1) period per day be programmed into the timer. This will be sufficient for most installations.
TIMER OPERATION 17 The function of the timer is to enable the gas burner to automatically boost the stored water temperature, if required, due to low solar energy gain during the day. This will ensure the solar storage tank is full of hot water for the evening hot water requirements.
TIMER OPERATION 18 TO SET THE TIME TIME PROG DAY HR MIN z z z z z RANDOM y R z MAN SU OFF 13:30 Example: Setting the current time as Sunday at half past one in the afternoon i.e. 1:30 PM. • Press and hold the “TIME” button. • Press the “DAY” button to select the current day.
TIMER OPERATION 19 To set “OFF” time • Press and release the “PROG” button. MO TU WE TH FR SA SU TIMER OFF TIME PROG DAY HR MIN z z z z z RANDOM y R z MA N 18:30 If the timer has been reset, then “TIMER – OFF”, “– – : – –” and “MO TU WE TH FR SA SU” will be displayed on the screen.
TIMER OPERATION 20 MANUAL BOOSTING – “OVERRIDE” F UNCTION The timer also has an “OVERRIDE” function to allow for bo osting the temperature of the water in the solar storage tank, outside of the set hours. SU ON TIME PROG DAY HR MIN z z z z z RANDOM y R z MAN 09:15 • To activate manual boosting, press the “MAN” button once.
SAVE A SERVICE CALL Check the items below before making a service call. You will be charged for attending to any condition or fault that is not related to m anufacture or failure of a part.
SAVE A SERVICE CALL 22 • Air in collectors (No solar gain) It is possible under certain conditions, such as when the pipe work has been opened, that air may become trapped in the solar collectors. This will prevent the circulator from moving water around the collector circuit.
SAVE A SERVICE CALL 23 TEMPERATURE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE RUNNING • Normal Operation It is normal and desirable this valve allows a small quantity of water to escape during the heating cycle. However, if it discharges more than a bucket full of water in 24 hours, there may be another problem.
SAVE A SERVICE CALL 24 TIMER APPEARS TO BE FUNCTIONING INCORR ECTLY Check the following: • Has the programming been set correctly? Check the programmed “ON” and “OFF” times (refer to “Timer Operation” on page 16 ). • Has the “R” (reset) button been inadvertently pressed? Reprogram the timer.
SAVE A SERVICE CALL 25 HIGH GAS BILLS With the installation of your new solar hot water system, maximum gas energy savings can be achieved with careful planning of hot water usage.

CONNECTIONS – ELECTRICAL 44 The power consumption of the water heater is: Component Power consumption Comments Solar controls 14 Watts Constant l oad 4 Watts differential controller 6 Watts solenoid.
COMMISSIONING TO FILL AND TURN ON THE WATER HEATER The power supply to the water heater must not be switched on and the gas pilot or burner must not be lit until the water heater is filled with water and a satisfactory megger reading is obtained. • Open all of the hot water taps in the house (don’t forget the shower).
COMMISSIONING 46 GAS INLET PRESSU RE IMPORTANT – CHECK the gas supply pressure at the inlet to the water heater with the water heater and all other gas burning appliances in the premises operating (burners alight). The minimum gas supply pressure is: Natural Gas 1.
COMMISSIONING 47 TO TURN OFF THE WATER HEATER If it is necessary to turn off the water heater on completion of the installation, such as on a building site or where the premises is vacant, then: • Shut down the gas control (refer to “Close Down Procedure” on page 51 ).
LIGHTING THE WATER HEATER FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BE FORE LIGHTING Warning: This gas water heater is designed to operat e reliably and safely as long as the operating instructions are followed exactly . You must comply with these lighting instructions at every stage.
LIGHTING THE WATER HEATER 49 LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS Using the gas control light the water heater as follows: 1. Stop , read the safety information on page 48 . 2. Turn the gas control knob fully clockwise to the “ z ” (off) position. 3. Wait five (5) minutes so any build up of unburnt gas can escape.
LIGHTING THE WATER HEATER 50 The main burner will now automatically ignite during the set timer period when heating is required and extinguish when the water has been heated to the set temperature. If the main burner does not light at the selected setting, t he water may already be at the selected temperature.
LIGHTING THE WATER HEATER 51 CLOSE DOWN PROCEDU RE 1. Turn the gas control knob to the “ · ” position (pilot). This setting will leave the pilot flame alight however the main burner will not be able to light. 2. Turn the gas control knob to the " z " (off) position.
DRAINING THE SOLAR COLLECTORS To drain the solar collectors and the solar hot and solar cold pipes: • Open a hot water tap and allow the water to run for five minutes immediately prior to draining the solar collector(s). This will assist in the transfer of any high temperature water in the solar collector(s) to the solar storage tank.
