How to turn on a gas water heater?

Gas water heaters are a very popular type of water heaters. Choosing the right model and installing it in an apartment or house, there is very little left - to learn how to turn on the speaker. Among the obligatory manipulations are the opening of the gas tap that supplies gas to the device, as well as the opening of the water tap, which will supply cold water to the machine. In this case, your actions will depend on the type of ignition used in your model of speaker.

This method is already outdated and is used in modern speakers very rarely. Such devices are poorly protected against both water pressure fluctuations and the damping of the fire. It is not recommended to install such devices at home now.

How to ignite a speaker with manual ignition:

• Unscrew the valve on the faucet that supplies water inside the speaker.
• Light the wick using a match or lighter.
• Open the valve on the gas supply tap.
• Sometimes it is necessary to wait a little while for air to escape from the burner to ignite it. To speed up the process, first open and then close the hot water tap several times.

This option of igniting the speaker is more modern and widespread. It is very easy to use, but it has such a disadvantage as increased gas consumption. While the speaker does not work, the wick inside it still smolders, so the gas, although in small quantities, burns constantly.

The combustion will be monitored by different sensors, and as soon as the user turns off the hot water tap, the ignition wick will go out.
