Handy, but not a plumber. No, this item is not a stand alone component. The power head only works with another part that is soldered into the outflow. It is only a cheap fix if you already have a zone valve. Zone valves are less expensive than circulators for each zone, but zone valve heads, or relays only last 4 or 5 years, so it is a trade off against initial installation. Short answer, the head alone won't do....John...CT

This device is only the activator that opens and closes the valve and is itself activated by the thermostat. The valve part is soldered into the hot water pipe at the source.Sounds like you need a heating expert.

I'm not a plumber, just a regular home owner. This Zone Valve IS ONLY a replacement for a zone heating system that is ALREADY using these valves! If you're adding zones to an existing boiler heating system, you MUST consult a plumber (and possibly an electrician) to set this up.

Yes. You will receive only what is shown in the picture. For 4- zone control you will need to purchase 2- additional zone valves.

I do not know the answer, if you are giving cooker proper time to release steam via the top valve or just opening it after timer sounds. You might need to contact the manufacturer.

The nice thing is the brass fittings are the same threads. It just unscrews (hold the outer brass ring keep the top brass fitting in-place and turn). Be careful to make sure the new rubber gasket is set properly, so you don't cut it. You don't need a timer--I just bought a grounded timer at one of many stores and use it to turn on the circulating pump a bit before my wife intends to use hot water (she has a firm schedule). Some timers can be set to go on/off several times a day. I thought the timer was a good idea, since there's no reason for hot water to be circulating through the house (i.e., heating the house and using energy from the water heater) if we didn't need it. The replacements come with a "flow dial". I called the company and they said the high setting is equivalent to the standard/set setting on the old pumps, so that's where mine is.

Seems to be no problem, for me, but I will caution that I use an aluminum plate 1/4 inch thick as a buffer, between the kettle and the burner. This is to avoid any hot spots and scorching, as the bottom is the same gauge stainless as the sides. That plate may provide some protection to the valve and thermometer. Might be a valid concern.

Do yourself a favor, I have purchased 2 of these heaters. Take the hose/regulator and the 90 degree elbow with you to the home depot or Lowes and let them get the correct adaptor for you. That's what I did. If I remember correctly its not an npt thread on both ends of the connector. I don't know why Mr. Heater doesn't supply everything needed to connect to the propane tank.

I'm sorry that didn't work.I'd definitely go to their website to get the customer service number (I had it at hand until a few days ago when I no longer needed it) Maybe they're a company with good customer svc who will replace your parts and/or entre pitcher. I think I'd mention the many lid complaints in the reviews.Good luck!Nancy

The unit comes with an indoor temperature control module, 10 ft of thermostat wire to connect to the temp control module, and a brass valve for the gas line. The unit does not come with hot/cold water valves or pressure relief valve. I purchased these separately as a kit (Webstone 44443WPR 3/4-Inch IPS Isolator EXP E2 Tankless Water Heater Service Valve Kit with Clean Brass Construction) from amazon for ~$100. One may also need to purchase a longer length of thermostat wire if the temperature control module will be placed further than 10 ft away from the unit. The unit was fairly easy to install if one has some basic electrical/plumbing knowledge. There is also a series of ~6 videos on youtube detailing installation of an outdoor rheem tankless hot water heater which I found helpful. I purchased this unit a couple months ago to place at my camp after my hot water heater died. This unit has worked perfectly and would definitely recommend this product

No, Nancy. I too am just a customer that purchased the heater. I would suggest you contact your nearest hardware store or heating technician.Sorry.

Well, Zach... Remove the thermostat only if you know for sure it's stuck closed and won't open. But, my advice to you Zach, is this: If you haven't opened the bottle of BlueDevil Pour-n-go yet, take it back and get a refund!!!! This BlueDevil Pour-n-go stuff is worthless! I will kill your (radiator, water-pump and the heater core!!!) The BEST head/engine sealer I have ever used is (MAROSO CERAMIC HEAD/ENGINE SEALER) You can buy it at any racing speed shop for around $25 a bottle.Don't wast your money on **** BlueDevil Pour-n-go JUNK!!! **** GOOD-LUCK!

The valve has a hot water stop to prevent scalding. In order to get it hotter water you need to adjust the factory setting. Your installation manual explains how to do this in a step by step diagram with drawings. If you threw it out already you can download a new one from the manufacturer

Before you spend to replace parts, try to fix it yourself. Unscrew the top and take it off so you can see inside. You will have to lift out the water container to get the top off so you can look into it. (After unplugging it, of course!) There are three thermostats, two on the top and one on the side of the boiler. Locate the side one, there is a red button on the top of this thermostat. Press this button. You may not hear a thing, but do it anyway. Now replace the top, plug in and see if it works. This is a reset button--the boiler may have overheated. If it doesn't work, at least you tried! Then you can looks for somewhere to spend your money trying to get it fixed. Will Rancilio do anything for you as far as repairs? One other thing I should mention, if it is heating (feels warm on top on the lid when you touch it), but no water comes out, you may have to prime it. Fill with water, make sure both plastic tubes are to the bottom of the water container, turn on the middle switch of the three on the left, then turn on steam wand handle counter clockwise, now turn on power. (Main switch) In about 15 seconds a stream of water should come out of the wand, so have a glass under there! Now it's ready to be used again.

I got the same problem but that filter does not do anything and I only need to boil water already filtered
2264027
Mine did too, and I confirmed with the company that the filter is necessary to build up enough steam to shut the kettle off. They offered to send me a replacement for $4.50 + $12.00 shipping! because they're in Canada and the shipping is international! I sent email to ask if there was anywhere in the U.S. I could get it, or whether they would just slip it into a small envelope to reduce the postage. Waiting for an answer and will update when I get it. In the meantime, I'm just stuffing a paper towel in the spout to keep the steam from escaping.

That's a good question, I've been looking for the valve and there are no sights that offer spare parts. I feel jipped as I bought the pot in January and used it for 4 months and the valve no longer works. I went to the forever site and left a comment, but of course no on got back to me..

Can you adjust the flow and temperature separately? If so, I don't think you have a standard valve.

Nope... You're not missing anything. It should heat up, and do so quickly. I suspect that your ceramic heating element has broken. I'd either swap it out with the spare, or contact the manufacturer. Good luck.
