After almost a minute, the water on the hot water faucet is still cold.It's possible that you stepped into a hot shower and the water gets cold in a few minutes.
Many homeowners and apartment dwellers will face these problems eventually, especially with electric water heaters and water heater reset switches.
The first thing you should check is the water heater's reset switch, which is a red button on the upper thermostat, and you will need to remove the small panel to access it.The switch needs to be reset if the button is lit up.You can reset the electric water heater by pressing the red button.
There is a lower thermostat reset button on the water heating system.Push the reset button if that is the case.If you push the buttons but they trip and won't reset, you may have a problem with one of the parts in the water heating system.
Water getting too hot is one of the main causes for the reset switch to trip.This could be a sign of a faulty thermostat in the upper or lower heating element.
The way a water heater works is easy to understand.The pressurized tank has water in it that fills from the bottom up.The fresh water at the bottom is heated by the lower heating element.The upper heating element keeps the water hot as it fills to the top.
Each section has a thermostat.The water heater has heating elements.The water will start to cool as it sits in the tank.The water is reheated by the thermostats.The thermostats shut off once the water temperature is set on the high-limit switch.
The water won't heat up at the bottom if the thermostat goes bad.The hot water at the top of the tank is replaced by cold water when you use it.
If the upper heating element or thermostat goes bad, you may get hot water at first, but you will quickly use it up before the heated water reaches the top.The element will keep heating the water above the set temperature if the thermostat is faulty.
The high-limit thermostat should be set at a temperature that gives you nice, hot water, but not boiling water that can burn orscald you.The tap water shouldn't come out as hot as boiling water.
The water shouldn't heat above the set temperature once you set the thermostat.The upper heating element will shut off if it does.
If you run out of hot water fast and often, or you have to reset the water heater frequently, the thermostat can wear out and trip the reset button.
The water heater stops working if the circuit breaker is tripped.If the water heater keeps tripping the circuit breaker, you should get a professional in to check it out to make sure there aren't any other electrical appliances sharing that same breaker.
