No water comes out of
Hello,
Based
on gas prices, often gas hot water heaters can be a more cost-effective
option than electric models and preferred by many homeowners. However,
gas hot water heater models can have their own set of problems that
differ from electric versions. You will not find it difficult to
perform some basic troubleshooting to resolve an issue with a gas hot
water heater.
Instructions
-
1
Determine
if the gas supply has been shut off. No gas will cause the hot water
heater to stop producing hot water. Turning the gas supply back on
should be your first troubleshooting technique.
-
2
Check
the pilot light. If you are experiencing no hot water, the pilot light
of your gas hot water heater may have distinguished. Turn off the gas
source and place a match over the pilot light tube to relight it.
-
3
Adjust
the thermostat of your hot water heater. If you find that the hot water
runs out quickly or does not get hot enough, you may need to set the
temperature of the gas hot water heater higher. Typically, set the dial
between the medium and hot setting for adequate hot water.
-
4
Inspect
the gas hot water heater. The burner orifice and flue can both become
clogged on a hot water heater. Turn off the gas and use a wire brush to
clean out any debris that may have become lodged in these sections.
-
5
Ensure
that all the burner access covers are in place. If the pilot light will
not stay lit, it could be due to exposure to drafts.
-
6
Flush
the tank. Certain deposits can build up over time when using a gas hot
water heater which can cause the tank to produce a banging noise. To
flush it, turn the heater off and open the pressure relief valve and
drain valve on the water heater. Use a hose to flush water through the
system until the hose runs clear.
Thanks.
