Use hair dryer and see if you can dry out parts.
Often, when electronics get wet, they cannot be repaired... like dropping cell phone in bucket of water.

SOURCE: no water from hot water faucet

thanks for your question, sounds to me like you have a frozen line, I used to live in Northern, MN on a well, and had alot of time un-thawing water lines, yes it is continuous flow, sorry for having to say this but you need to immediately start tracing your hot water lines and see if you have any leaks, bulges, or ice forming on the line, tap the line with a screwdriver to hear the difference in sound when you find the frozen section, here is the tricky part, if its (pecks line, plastic) then you need to call a plumber, if copper, you can use a torch to un thaw the line, but use extream caution when doing this as many people has accidentally started fires, my best advise is to call a plumber, hope that helped, please get back to us and let us know what you find, thanks again, mr.grzz

SOURCE: no hot water

You may need a circulating pump but I can't explain why it was fine before and not now. What I would do is turn the supply off to the water heater along with the power, remove the outlet supply. Open all hot side faucets in the home, using compressed air blow through the pipes if the air comes back at you, then there is a blockage before the hot manifold. If air moves, shut one faucet off at a time to try and determine where the culprit is. I don't know what else to tell you other than that. If air moves through the faucet every time, then you may want to put a circulating pump on. The only other expination is that when they repaired the pipe, some debris or eccess solder is blocking the hot supply. I have seen rocks in units as well. Because of the fix, you may want to take apart each faucet in the house and using a flashlight, look in the hot supply side to see if you can find any debris in those as well. Its not unusual after a repair, to have debris caught in them. Hopefull this helps.

SOURCE: I have water pouring out of a pipe outside that is

That pipe is connected to something called the T&P (temperature and pressure) relief valve. The pipe that connects to the valve should be run to a drain line so that the water goes somewhere other than all over the floor, but often it just ends a couple of feet from the valve. It's possible the valve has opened because the pressure in the tank is over its limit, but more likely it's the valve's fault. If the new heater was supplied without a T&P, the installer may have used the one from your old heater. Over time the spring inside the valve weakens. Then it can't hold the pressure from the new heater properly. A new valve is under $10 at home improvement stores or larger hardware stores. It just screws into the water heater, so it's simple to replace it if you have a pipe wrench. Turn off the water into the heater and remove the old valve. Use Teflon tape or pipe dope on the threads of the new valve (the store will sell that too), tighten it into the heater, then turn the water back on. That should end your leak. If it doesn't and the T&P valve still opens, you'll need to have a plumber check the water pressure in your home.

SOURCE: No water pressure in bath tub after turning off hot water heater

It could be back flowing into the hot water heater tank which is not full because of the leak. Even though the valve is closed on the cold water entry side, there is probably no valve on the exit side. That is how it is returning to the tank.

SOURCE: Our electric water heater doesn't work.

make sure it is wired correctly, check circuit breaker, check breaker built on to element. If all fails, and it is determined your not getting power to it, you may need a electrician. Be careful. good luck.

Howdy, that morning wake up while tap i am opened. after roof to go went i. water pipe leaking over water. however, weather many & over cold. how to fixing pipe?

Are you dealing with a plumbing emergency like a leaking water heater, a sewer that's backing up, burst pipes, blocked drains, an overflowing toilet, or a washing machine that has a water supply line that's leaking? Sounds like an urgent situation. You would be best to call a plumber asap.

How long can I be left without hot water in my flat The geyser burst on Saturday Still not replaced

That depends on the local building code. Hot water may not be a requirement for a habitable dwelling. For instance, heat is required but airconditioning is not. Check with the local AHJ (Aria having jurisdiction). Building Inspector and permits or community development

When switching on my geyser,the electricity trips. What could be wrong?

Hi, I suppose that you talk about an electric geyser.
It is important to know if tripping is the result of a shortcut or via the earth leakage switch.
In the fist case, often insulation is somewhere gone.
But more likely is the second possibility.
then there can be somewhere a little leak in the water circuit and condensation goes on the wires and they become conductive to small currents, specialy to the earth wire.

Hi i have installed a few bosch gas geysers at our lodge in mozambique.The problem is that the water gets hot when we turn the water on then the heat just shuts off and the water gets cold after a short...

The problem with all that type of water heater is that once the hot tap is turned on sufficient flow must be maintained through the water heater to keep the main gas burner alight. If the heat adjuster is turned up to high, then the person using the hot water will turn it down to a low rate which means the main burner will turn off and result in cold water. Try setting the heat control to the lowest setting that still gives hot enough water. If you have a thermometer adjust control for a temperature of around 50 to 55 degrees Celcius. You may have to fiddle with fine adjustments to get the temperature and flow rates to maintain a constant output of hot water. You may still have intermittent problems. If the heater only supplies baths or showers you could set the temperatuer even lower (45 to 50) to ensure that the hot tap is used more than the cold which will maintain flow and therefore heat.

Hi .. if the thermostat is tripping and the safety valve is dripping , that would indicate that the water is being over heated , or the tank is at a low level . Check the thermostst setting, it should be about mid scale. Check the supply valve to be sure that there is a constant supply of cold water. Any thoughts?

No water hot

does it have a heater in the circulation line, it should be under the cover and would be in line on the 2 inch pipe that feeds the jets, it should also be on a gfci, check to make sure it is plugged in if this is plugged in and not tripped you need to install a new heater
