Not unless your hot water is continuosly running.
The solder will most likely melt at the operating temperature of the heater.
It is an electric heater, with the heating elements in a straight line (a strip)
No, the upper and lower water heater elements are not the same. They serve different functions in heating the water in a water heater.
Check the heating elements in the water heater. These may be bad and need replaced.
The unusual smell coming from the heater may be caused by dust or debris burning off the heating elements.
A convector heater works by using a heating element, usually electric, to warm up the air surrounding it. The warm air rises and creates convection currents, which circulate the heat throughout the room. As the cool air is drawn into the heater, it gets heated and rises, creating a continuous flow of warm air.
A quartz heater is a type of electric heater that uses infrared heating technology to produce heat. It contains heating elements made of quartz tubes, which quickly generate radiant heat to warm up an area. Quartz heaters are often used for spot heating in rooms or outdoor spaces.
Yes, but both elements are needed for proper heating of water.
If it is a electric water heater, then one of the heating elements are burned out.
The microwave ovens which have duel heating can give browning effect. The second heating is due to conventional resistance heater elements.
This is a 240 volt, two chimney heater (1500 watts per chimney) with a double pole thermostat. If the heater is not heating at all, indicates thermostat or electric source issue, if one element is heating and second is not, indicates one of the elements is burned out.
This is a shocking answer but one of the heaters may have a break in it's heating element liner and be the culprit. You have to cut the AC power to the heater and then remove both sides of the electrical connections on the heater elements. ( Most times there are two) with a ohmmeter there should be no connection or leakage from the heater element electrical terminials to the tank metal
