Unvented water heater question - Gledhill direct 90l
Was called to a club and the water was getting too hot, done some checks and the thermostat was not working (not turning off). Changed the stat and all worked, called back after 2 weeks and it had gone again, put it down to a faulty stat and duly replaced it. Tested the water temp after it had got to temperature and it was reaching a nice 59 degrees, voltage reading around 244v
Had a call again this week saying the water temp has started getting too high, this stat has managed about 4 weeks until it has failed. Going to go back and measure the resistance of the element, but never had one where that has failed and caused an increase in load.
Any ideas other than changing the element?
Cheers
