Do you own a Bosch 13B or 16B hot water service? Are you having problems with it? Are you getting cold water instead of hot? Or perhaps its just not igniting the natural or lp gas? These are just a couple of the symptoms that relate to a fault with your Bosch Battery Ignited Hot Water Service, in this weeks blog post we will dissect a few of the common symptoms of a problematic bosch battery ignition hot water service and what are the required steps for a licensed plumber to fix your hot water system.
To start with if you have a Bosch 13b or 16b hot water service which will not ignite the gas there are most likely 2 things which will be wrong. Either the 2 x D size batteries have gone flat which assist in the ignition process or the ignition control pack has packed it in. If it is just the batteries this will be a relatively cheap fix at approx $10 on parts, but if it is the ignition control pack then this will be a bit more pricey at approx $250 for a genuine bosch ignition pack.
If your bosch 13b or 16b hot water service is only sometimes igniting the ignition module could be out of alignment and this is a relatively simple task to be under taken by a licensed plumber which initially requires no parts. If how ever this still does not resolve the problem it can then lead to the ignition pack needing to be replaced.
Are you noticing significant temperature spikes whilst in the shower, fluctuations from warm water to scalding hot? If this problem has only just recently occurred and you have not replaced a shower head then this is a very go indicator that the water section for the bosch 13b or 16b is in need of an overhaul. Typically parts for this job start at approx $85 for the diaphragm and then approx $75 for the other parts which make up the complete water section over haul, your plumber would advise at the time as to if both repair kits are needed or just the one. If it is established that water section is in good condition and the problem is still occurring the gas valve may need re-greasing, no parts are needed but it can be labour intensive (your licensed plumber will advise). When considering taking the step of dismantling the bosch 13b or 16b to re-grease the gas valve components the age of the hot water service should be taken into consideration as it may be a better option to just upgrade, but your licensed master plumber from Mayfair Plumbing and Gasfitting would assist with these decisions at the time.
