Whoa!! Put that Allen key away!
1. Have you put the drain plug in?
2. Is the pressure relief valve closed?
3. Have you made sure the valves are in normal, not bypass, position? Many systems have two valves that need to be in the correct positions.
4. Did you open a hot water tap and turn the pump on? It should take several minutes to purge out the air, fill the tank with water and get a smooth flow out of the tap.
If all of that is correct, then we can troubleshoot but you will not need that Allen key.
Morning I’m going to the camper now.
Drain plug is in
Pressure relief valve is closed
I opened up the back panel to the heater and took it out of bypass mode (at this point I started I to hear water flow into The tank)
I have not opened the tap and let it run for an extended period of time. Will try that now and write back ASAP
Thanks !
