It's generally not advisable to run both a water heater and a tanning bed off the same breaker. Water heaters typically require a significant amount of power, which can exceed the capacity of a single circuit, especially when both devices are in use simultaneously. This can lead to tripped breakers or potential electrical hazards. It's best to consult an electrician to ensure proper load balancing and safety.

What gauge wire and amp breaker do you use on a stove dryer and hot water heater?

For a stove, use a 8 or 6 gauge wire with a 40 to 50 amp breaker. For a dryer, use a 10 or 8 gauge wire with a 30 amp breaker. For a hot water heater, use a 10 or 8 gauge wire with a 30 or 40 amp breaker. Be sure to consult local electrical codes and guidelines for specific requirements.


Are the upper and lower water heater elements the same?

No, the upper and lower water heater elements are not the same. They serve different functions in heating the water in a water heater.


Can you wire your water heater and dryer to the same breaker?

Under no circumstances should you do this.. for one they probably have different power requirements, but also they are high current devices, and by code MUST be put on separate branch circuits


Should both thermostats on a water heater be set to the same temperature?

Yes, both thermostats on a water heater should be set to the same temperature to ensure consistent and efficient heating of the water.


Why does my 1500 watt heater consistently blow my 15 amp breaker fuse?

At 120 Volts your heater is drawing about 12.5 Amps. If your house only had 120 V then it would draw 13.6 Amps. Problems could be 1.) Other devices on same circuit. 2.) Internal short in the heating element that reduced resistance and increased current. 3.) Faulty heater in that it really delivers more than 1500 watts because heating elements are less resistance than rating would require. 4.) Faulty breaker. These are in order of likelihood. You are close enough to the limit of the breaker that it could be any of these things. Typically you should not exceed 80% of the breaker rating and that is just where you are operating.


Are vented and insulated the same thing on a water heater?

not even in the same state


Does salt water help tanning?

Salt water can help enhance tanning by drawing out moisture from the skin, allowing it to absorb more sunlight. However, excessive exposure to salt water can also dehydrate the skin, leading to sunburn. It's important to use sunscreen and stay hydrated while tanning in salt water.


How is heat transferred to water in a water heater?

In a gas water heater: The gas flame warms the water, exactly the same way as a gas stove burner does for a pan of water on the stove. In an electric water heater, an element - same as an electric range element, but a different shape - heats up from electrical current, and transfers that heat to the water.


What is a heater coil and a heater core?

The heater coil and a heater core is the same thing. Hot water circulates from the engine and through the heater core then back to engine generating heat for your heater system.

Should a hot water heater be put on a 30 single or 30 double amp breaker?

What governs the type of breaker is the voltage and wattage of the heater elements. If the tank is 120V then you would only use one breaker. The size of the breaker you use will depend on the watts of the element. Watts = amps x volts, Amps = Watts/ volts. Once you establish the amperage then size the wire and the breaker to fit. If the tank is 240V the same rules apply only you would use a 2 pole breaker. IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS. If you do this work yourself, always turn off the power at the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicatorto insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.


How do you turn off a heater pilot light?

Same as any hot water heater. Turn the gas valve to off.
