No pressure in the hot water in all house?
Check your water heater to ensure that the valve in the supply line is open. You can test that the water heater is working by using the relief valve at the top, just beware of the potential for scalding hot water to come out if the heater is operating correctly. If you have a full tank, and all the valves are open around the water heater, it may be time to call a plumber.

Hot Water Heater Problems?
The worst time to have a hot water heater problem is while you are in the shower or washing dishes. Luckily, hot water heater problems are not as difficult to handle as you might think, and you do not have to buy a brand new water heater every time something goes wrong. If you do purchase a new hot water heater, get the correct one for your house or your mobile home, as each differs in size and capacity.Tips and instructions on how to fix your own water heater problemsThe different problems that can occur with water heaters are not enough water, water that is not hot enough, water that is too hot, rusty or dirty water, a leaky water heater, a rusty tank, a noisy water heater and a smelly water heater. Hard water contaminants can build up over time. This creates a layer of sediment on the bottom of the water tank, hinders the heater's performance and shortens its life. Slow down this process by softening the hard water and lowering the temperature to 130 degrees.Turn off the electricity and water prior to any work on your water heater. Fix the problemTo fix the problem of not enough water, push the reset button on the high-temperature cutoff valve. Test the thermostats and the heating element, and replace them if they are not working. To fix the problem of not enough hot water, check to see if pilot light is out. Relight it if it is. If the pilot light does not stay lit, clean the pilot orifice, tighten the thermocouple connections and/or replace a faulty thermocouple. Also, adjust the thermostat settings. You might also see if your water heater holds less than 15 gallons of water per family member. If so, consider purchasing a larger unit or staggering the use of the hot water within the family. To fix the problem of too hot water, adjust the thermostat settings and reset. Test and replace the thermostat or high-limit cutoff if necessary. To fix the problem of a leaky heater, check the pressure relief valve. If a leak continues, replace the valve, then tighten the mounting bolts on the heating element gasket, and replace the gasket, if necessary. To fix the problem of a rusty tank, replace the water heater. To fix the problem of a noisy heater, drain and flush the tank and replace damaged or scale-encrusted elements if necessary. To fix the problem of dirty water, drain and flush the tank, and do this on a regular basis to extend the life of your electric water heater. If drain valves leak, tighten or replace them.Electrical concernsIf you smell a gas odor for more than a couple of minutes, close the gas-shutoff valve that supplies water to the heater, and open a door or window to ventilate the room. Call your gas company immediately. Your electric water heater is a 240-volt appliance and can produce a fatal shock. Turn off the power in your house by flipping all of the switches at the service panel to the off positions prior to beginning any work. Tell your family you are working on the electrical water heater and label the electric service panel with a sign of some kind that can alert family members that you are working on the electricity. Also, shut off the water supply to the water heater.Following all of these tips and instructions should ensure a cheaper and safer way of repairing your water heater at home. Good luck!
How do you test a block heater on a g6?
Easiest is to plug in the block heater cord with the hood open. Follow the cord to where the block heater is located and you should hear a gurgling sound similar to an electric kettle. If you don't check your power source. If you can reach the block heater unplug the cord from it and check the power at the end that plugs into the heater with a 2 prong tester to make sure it's not the cord causing the problem.
