What could be wrong when there is no hot water but the hot water tank seems to be working?
air lock in hot water pipe
What is safety valve?
It is a device that opens on its own if a certain condition is reached. Let's say you are designing a water heater. You know if everything goes wrong the unit could reach 210 degrees F, or to have 150psi pressure inside it. You also know if either of those things happen the water heater could explode...so you put a safety valve on it that opens if either condition is reached.
What is wrong after installing a sink and toilet in a basement you can smell sewer?
Sounds like the trap in the sink is getting the water pulled out of it. It probably wasn't vented properly.
What could be wrong if your bathtub gurgles when your toilet is flushed?
As water drains, it displaces air in the pipes. If the vent or vents in your house are clogged up, the air must find another way out, which could be another drain in your house.
What could be wrong if you installed a new sink in the basement and there is no hot water pressure in the house?
One of the valves that you closed while hooking up the hot water to the sink was probably an old gate valve... It broke and did not fully re-open.
What could be wrong with a 1994 Cavalier that leaks water on the passenger side carpets if it is not the heater core?
Is it water or coolant? If it's water, you probably have a leaky windshield seal. If it's coolant you could have a heater control valve leak.
What is wrong if the heater in your 1994 Ford Taurus LX 3.8L does not get very warm or very fast?
Could be a plugged heater core. Check the engine temp guage. if it is getting warm, your heater core could be plugged or restricted.
If the heater is not putting out heat could it be the thermostat?
If you are not getting heat out of the heater, there are only a few things that could be wrong. The first is low coolant. You can't get heat without coolant running through the heater. If it is low, sometimes it has to be bled of air bubbles. If both heater hose running to the heater are hot, you have circulation. If not the heater could be plugged or not getting the coolant to circulate. There is also a damper in the heater system to stop cold air from bypassing the heater and that needs to be checked.
