Troubleshooting An E1 Error Code On A Fogatti Tankless Water Heater
Question:
We have a Fagotti tankless water heater in our 5th wheel and it’s less then a year old. It’s throwing the E1 code most of the time now. We start the water and the panel starts flashing 8’s and then turns off. How can I trouble shoot or fix it

Expert Reply:
An E1 error code on a Fogatti Tankless Water Heater is an ignition failure, which means the unit isn't getting enough gas to properly operate. You'll need a qualified technician to check the pressure and possibly replace or clean out your propane regulator in order to get your pressure back up to 11" W.C. so that it can operate properly. If you need a new regulator we have a few options depending on your setup.
For a horizontal regulator you'll need part # 108221, and for a vertical regulator you'll need part # 108220. If you have dual tank regulator then you can use part # 37207-30395.
