What makes an electric baseboard heater tick?

The expansion and contraction of the heating element when the unit turns off and on. If you have ultra fine hearing and the thermostat is part of the baseboard heater it will be the bi-metal element in the thermostat.


How does the car heater work when the engine is turned off?

When the engine is turned off, the car heater can still work by using the remaining heat stored in the engine and circulating it through the car's heating system. This allows the heater to continue providing warmth inside the car even when the engine is not running.


How long should you wait before you have hot water since you reset the water heater and reset the breakers?

As you say you had to reset the circuit breakers, the water heater's heating element may have "died" by shorting to Ground or Earth. This could be the reason why its circuit's breakers tripped to cut off the power. Time to buy a new water heater...? <><><> Typically, you should be able to tell a difference as quick as 15 minutes or so, but it may take well over an hour or two for it to reach "operating temperature". Some electric hot water heaters, you can even hear them as they heat, and you typically can the gas ones. Your biggest variables, assuming you're not using hot water as it heats, is the amount of water that is in the heater, as well as the heating power the heater puts out into the water. Electrics are practically 100% efficient, but gas ones are not even close, but they do operate at higher heater temps and can heat the water faster. <><><> It takes about an hour for a fifty gallon electric water heater to heat up.


Your heater is getting warmer when you decelerate and colder when you accelerate?

This issue is likely due to a problem with the heater control valve or the vacuum system that controls the valve. When you decelerate, engine vacuum increases and can cause the valve to open, allowing hot coolant to flow through the heater core. Conversely, when you accelerate, the decrease in vacuum can cause the valve to close, cutting off the flow of hot coolant and reducing the heat from the heater.


What happens to the volume of a hot-air balloon when the heater is turned off?

When the heater is turned off, the air inside the balloon cools down, causing it to contract and the volume of the balloon to decrease. This decrease in volume creates less lift, causing the balloon to descend.

What would cause my 99 Grand Cherokee heater to stop switching heat vent location Turn on defrost nothing turn on floor nothing etc. blower is working fine just switching of venting direction?

If it's a Laredo, you probably have a vaccum line that has come off or broken. Vent switching is controlled by vaccum in these models. The main vent line comes off of the driver's side of the intake manifold. These are notorious for either slipping off or breaking.

Car heater blows cold air when not driving?

A car heater taps off engine heat. If you aren't driving, then the engine is cold and there's no heat for the car heater to use.


Does use of the heater decrease mileage?

When a car runs, it produces heat as a wasted product. This heat is then used to heat up air and blow it at you. This heat will be created even when the heater is off, so using the heater should not lower gas mileage.


Why does your heater only blow through the defrost vent on your 1994 Ford F150?

Idk know but mine does it when i start off from a red light or stop sign and as soon as i let off the gas or it changes gears (automatic) it comes through the vents like normal.


Why does the heater only work when you are driving?

Because the heater pulls the heat off of the motor and uses fans to circulate it to you
