HOT WATER TROUBLESHOOTING INDEX
Hot Water is not Hot 85°C ± 5°C
The Hot Temperature set point is 85°C (185°F) and is controlled by a thermostat on the side of the
Hot Tank.

that will trip to prevent damage to the unit if the tank is dry heated (turned on without water in it).
The C100 Water Treatment System does NOT have Extra Hot capability and the maximum hot
temperature is 87°C (189°F).
It typically takes 10 minutes for the 500W to heat the 1.5 Litre of room temperature (ambient) water
