SOURCE: Paloma PTG 74PVN Tankless Water Heater

did you check the filters on the the water valves, i am not exactly sure about your codes that are shoeing but if you could read it and post them, i know on some of the units 76 means there is low water pressure and the filters are behind 2 caps one on each side above the shut off valve take off the caps and remove the screens, clean them and replace them ,, make sure you turn off the water on both side first or you will get wet

SOURCE: Paloma tankless, gas, water heater, error code C7 76

If you look on the left hand side of the burner control module you'll see 4 capacitors - the capacitors have most likely failed...pretty sure anything code 76 is P/S failure. It may also be covered for manufactures defects. If the cap is blown..the top will be slightly raised as apposed to flat like the other nearby caps - they are called top blow capacitors...the damage should be evident.

I have a Richmond tankless water heater and it has L1 error code...can somebody help me with this?

Might be able to help. Except L1 does not show on any error code file.
Copy following link for Rheem Richmond Ecosense etc computer water heater troubleshoot resources
http://waterheatertimer.org/Troubleshoot-Rheem-Tankless-water-heater.html
Are you sure the error is not IL? Delime tankless.
Or UL flashes and indicates reset.
Or CL flashes and indicates fault history is cleared.
Or error 11 combustion failure? Call for service.
Or P1? Low water pressure, clean water filter check for leaks and crossover caused by bad single-handled faucet cartridge.
I recommend calling Rheem to find local technician who is qualified to work on tankless computers. Tankless are not ordinary water heaters, and they require continual maintenance to avoid common error codes, especially as unit gets 2-3 years old, after warranty has expired.
The required maintenance and expense of repairs, and general fact that people cannot make their own repairs, make tankless computers a bad choice for heating water.
If unit is 4-5 years old, it might be best to install tank-type heater for $385 from Lowes and cut losses.

Richmond tankless water heater will not clear error code

Why is it always Rheem problems?
Every water heater problem at fixya is Rheem.
And Rheem doesn't post any service manuals, like the other two big manufacturers, AO Smith-American, and Bradford White.

Rheem 2012 manual says if error 13 still displays, then contact installer or service technician. Mo Money buddy.
This is about oxygen sensor, poor combustion, bad venting, inadequate air supply, failed sensors, etc.
Get more fresh air to unit and see if that solves problem. The call service technician, and get out wallet.
Copy following link for Rheem-richmond tankless troubleshoot.
http://waterheatertimer.org/Troubleshoot-Rheem-Tankless-water-heater.html

Maintain water heater according to instructions in manual to avoid common error codes. Of course this means you have to service the unit each month, and each year, without guarantee the thing will work correctly.

Code 14.
What water heater do you have?
Question posted under tankless Bosch, but these error codes start with a letter.
Rheem/Richmond etc Tankless has error code 14

http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paloma-Tankless-Error-Codes.pdf
Call tankless service technician.
Ask technician how much it costs to have recommended yearly service.

Or install whole new tank-type gas water heater yourself for $350 from local box store, and avoid the entire headache, then sell tankless online for parts.

Which type Richmond water heater?
Is this a tankless water heater or tank-type?

Tankless are notorious for 'cold water sandwich' under exact conditions you describe. You might need tankless with larger BTU burner.
Don't install a tankless.
http://waterheatertimer.org/Troubleshoot-Rheem-Tankless-water-heater.html

If you have tank-type water heater, then I suspect a clog in the hot water line, or single-handle faucet cartridge in show is going bad.
Same problems can contribute to tankless problems.
