No, you will have different temperatures of water inside the water heater, which will make it difficult to get a consistent temperature out of a shower valve or faucet. The heater will also not work correctly or efficiently.

Why does a reset pop on a hot water heater?

The reset is a high limit safety device that cuts the voltage off when the temperature of the water tank becomes too high. If you feel that the water temperature is hotter that usual this is a good sign that the thermostat is not working. Check and make sure that the setting of the thermostat has not been altered. It should be set for around 140F. If the setting has not been adjusted then there is a good chance that the thermostat needs replacing

Yes, that is because the radiator is cooling it, the running temp should be about 195 or so when the thermostat opens to let the hotter coolant in to the radiator to be cooled.
