Why do you only have 110 power to your electric water heater?
There are small water heaters that run on 110 volts. However if yours is a large 240 volt heater and you only have 110 volts going to it, then it is fused and one on the fuses has blown in the service panel.
Hot water heater the we just rerouted from bathroom to attic isn't filling... no leaks and cold water works and the tank will only fill when cold water is going ... anyone know anything about that?
Check piping. Make sure cold line going into cold side of water heater and hot side coming out hot side. Cold feed for water heater should come off main cold line. Make sure valves are open to and from water heater.
Do you need gas for an electric water heater?
No, you only need gas for a gas water heater.
If a clay or rust substance is coming from only the hot side in faucets is this caused by the water heater rusting or going bad?
You are more than likely correct. Try draining the water heater to remove any sediment.
How does gas water heater work?
The gas water heater works through a principle of physics which is known as convection. The gas heater is similar to a water heater only that it has one heating unit.?æ
Why does kitchen sink only have cold water?
Because hot water heater breaker has tripped, or hot water heater has failed.
Why does heater work only when your car is idle?
I am going to assume that you are pondering why the heater only maintains heat while the engine is running. The answer is quite simple. The engine uses a combination of anti-freeze and water to help keep it cool. The water is circulated by a water pump. The hot water moves through the heater core, which is a small radiator. The blower draws air through the fins of the heater core and heat is pulled from it. The water pump is usually belt driven, and the engine must be on in order for the coolant to circulate.
What would cause a 98 dodge 1500 4x4 heater to blow luke warm air?
Any heater that only blows luke warm air isn't getting warm or hot water to the coil. This sounds like a problem with the thermostat not closing, and allowing the engine to heat the water properly for the heater.

Is it called a hot water heater or water heater?
It's because "hot-water" is a compound adjective, modifying "heater". It's not for heating water, it's for heating a house with hot water. There are many types of heaters that heat water, but only a hot-water heater is used for providing heated water for domestic use. A hydronic boiler also heats water, but it's only for use in radiators.The name "Hot Water Heater" is completely wrong for any use. There is no need to heat hot water. IT has always been "water heater". The term hot water heater has just been used for years because people don't realize the difference. It has always been WATER HEATER.The first answer is jibberish and makes no practical sense at all.
How do you fix the heat in a 94 Chevy S-10?
add water to the radiator. believe that. if there is no water flowing through the engine, your heater will only blow cold air. if there is no water flowing through the engine and your heater is only blowing cold air, and not HEATING, your heater core is probably going out or will be soon. most people believe that if you have no water in the engine then your temperature gauge will run hot and you will know that you are overheating the engine. WRONG! your temp gauge only measures WATER temp. But if there is no water to measure, there is no temperature rise showing on the dashboard gauge. if you have NO WATER in the engine you can seriously overheat your engine and not know it because the gauge is not getting any hotter than usual (sometimes your gauge will even read cooler than usual).
Would you be able to find a shut off valve to keep water from entering heater coil?
There is no shut off valve. But you can by pass the heater core by disconnecting the 2 hoses going to the heater core. And connecting them together. The only problem with this is that you won't have any heat in the winter.
