Richmond tankless water heater My system keeps flashing 29 and is beeping

A 29 error code indicates a neutralizer drainage failure. The neutralizer is designed to drain condensate away from the heater. If the neutralizer and/or drain becomes blocked up, the unit will flash the 29 error code to prevent the burner from being flooded.

Rheem tankess RTGH model error code 29

The neutralizer has a plastic drainage tube going out of the case at the bottom left corner. You need to remove the valve on that tube to let the water drain out freely.

I had the same problem for my new Rheem.

I have error codes "C2"

Open following error-code link in downloadable pdf for your files:
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paloma-Tankless-Error-Codes.pdf

Error code 11 has to do with ignition/gas/gas pressure/electrical grounding.
This can be caused by internal part failure or combination of internal or external factors.
I suggest reading pdf, and then calling service technician who specializes in your brand.

Open typical manual to review required regular maintenance for tankless on page 29
The word maintenance is used throughout manual, indicating that tankless are a yearly budget nuisance

I am getting a IL code on my display

IL code is: water heater has lime deposits.
Tankless should be de-limed each year using white vinegar..
Search U-tube for "de-lime tankless heater" to see how to do this yourself, or call service technician.
There are special fittings that can be added to tank at the hot-n-cold ports that let you easily de-lime your water heater each year.

Typical manual shows error IL on page 33:
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Rheem-RTG74IndoorOutdoor_owners.pdf

Typical manual also shows regular maintenance on page 29.
The word maintenance is used throughout the manual.

Research shows that regular de-liming will not restore full efficiency to tankless water heaters:

No hot water

The code # 11 is a code that warns of "no ignition" and the causes of this error code are too many to list. I would suggest that a qualified tech. perform a diagnostic test and repair.

This is not a task for the "do it yourselfer"
