What else can I help you with?
Can you use an electric charcoal starter to heat your hot water tank?
Yes you can. I’ve been doing it for years. Make sure all gas inlets are off and no chance of gas in the unit. Then remove the front panel door and attached pilot assembly. Cover the flume on top of the heater. I ussually use a small piece of ceramic tile for this or something similar. Then place burner into heater where pilot typically rests. Be careful not to damage any of the open flame burner assembly inside when placing the electric burner in the unit. Replace main panel door. leave electric and temp dial alone and use to adjust house water temp as you would if your were running gas to the unit. In a few hours youll have hot water. Over night you’ll have an entire tank full. In mu experience it heats just as a gas flame does. But I do want to mention it’s important make sure you have a quality burner meant for extended use as it will need to stay on to maintain normal hot water functioning. Also by opening the second panel door most place will require a qualified technician to replace the gasket and “tamper resistant” screws upon servicing the utilities to the unit

How do you reactivate activated charcoal?

Is the water in the kettle or tank storing the greatest amount of heat energy?
The water in the tank typically stores the greatest amount of heat energy, as it has a larger volume compared to the water in the kettle. The tank water takes longer to heat up but retains heat for longer periods.
What heating element would you switch on to heat the whole tank?
You would switch on an immersion heater to heat the entire tank. It is designed to heat water in tank systems by immersing in the water and heating it directly.
How is heat energy transferred through the wall of a hot water tank?
Heat energy is transferred through the wall of a hot water tank primarily by conduction. The heat from the water inside the tank transfers to the walls of the tank, and then to the outside environment. Additionally, some heat can also be lost through convection and radiation.
Does the boiler heat the water at first then supply it to the hot water tank?
No, a hot water tank heats water by itself.
