Squeeling sound and lower pressure from gas water heater

Probably the factory-installed heat trap nipples are clogged.Open following links.http://waterheatertimer.org/Low-hot-water-pressure.htmlhttp://waterheatertimer.org/Low-hot-water-pressure.html#trapNoisy whistling and humming and low pressure are common problem with heat trap nipples and inserts from factory. Replace heat-trap nipples with pex-lined nipples, or remove heat trap inserts with screwdriver or needle nose... careful not to break insert so it falls into tank ... which can then get lodged in hot water line elbow or under-sink shut off.Factory-installed heat traps are part of overall strategy so manufactures can claim more efficient water heaters, without requiring customers to any thinking.Other strategies include foam insulation instead of fiberglass (so that wires cannot be replaced on electric units), reducing factory-set temperature from previous 130-135 to 100-120, and re-estimating downward the hot water use for average family.So some of the strategies are useful, while others problematic or imaginary. Call manufacturer to pay-for or provide new pex-line nipples.

Get hot water from your Rheem tankless during a code 76 error

This doesn't always work, but on the Rheem tankless Gas/Propane water heater, if you're experiencing a code 76 error; disconnect the remote control unit (either from the water heater or the remote) by lifting the wires for the remote connection. Typically you'll get a C1-C8 error code, followed by a code 76; if you're getting a straight code 76 and nothing else, this procedure probably won't work.
Code 76 is a total power supply failure on the printed circuit board (PCB) assembly, which is the communication/power supply for the remote control unit. But, if you're getting a supplemental code (C1-C8) this procedure will most likely supply you with hot water until the replacement PCB arrives.

Water Heater will not stay lit.

Sounds like you are getting a downdraft . Or a delayed ignition What type of water heater is it ? One that stores hot water like a 30 Gal natural gas or LPG water heater? Tankless don't use standing pilot. Where is the heater? In a closet or a utility room. Whats the condition of the flue pipe. How many bends how long is the run? In other words Please have a licensed plumber check it out because you are dealing with an appliance that produces a poisonous Gas called CO (Carbon Monoxide) It's colorless, odorless, and it kills. And it don't care who.

Rheem 42VP50FW won't light? Ignitor lights though

The three most common reasons for this happening to you are 1) a defective gas valve, 2) a rusty thermopile, and/or 3) the automatic shut-off not working as it should. So, the most common reason for many people having this problem stems from having a gas valve that is not working as it should. When your gas control valve is faulty, it will mean that your burner is not going to be igniting as it should-or at all. Something that worked for me one time was to turn the Temp all the way down then all the way to Max a couple of times..gradually. Why it worked I don't know. Got a couple more years out of it though. Good luck! Best to you.

Rheem furnace error code 68 fix?

Hi, From what I'm seeing this means that there is a bad part within your furnace and it needs to be replaced. It might be the thermostat. You might need to reach out to a local HVAC company to diagnose the issue in person. Thank you.
