My Coleman hot water on demand only stays lit for about a minute and goes out. I can't figure out why? Please help it's only a couple month old and the flame is burning blue if that matters.

Question edited for clarity. Those boilers only work if they sense water flow. Try opening the tap fully and see if it will stay alight. Then after a 5 minutes, see if you can reduce the flow, which will increase the temperature of the water. A blue flame is good. Don't forget if it is only a couple of months old, it is under warranty, call the seller, Coleman or the installer.

Power Star tankless water heater works fine except when the tub faucet is on. Then the red light flashes and the water does not get heated...turn off the tub and everything else functions fine.

these units have an inlet filter i would check that first, 2nd i would turn on 3 hot water sources and see after doing see if it corrects last try resetting the unitit. the 3 - 220 circuits are for the heating elements.

I have a powerstar tankless water heater that runs my kitchen and bath room. The sinks get plenty hot but when you turn on the shower it stays ice cold and the power light just keeps going on and off

Shower heads have flow limiters installed in them. This means the water heater cannot sense the water flowing and therefore it wont come on. Take the shower head off and look in the end for a piece of plastic that is in the swivel. Remove it. Then put the shower head back on.

Installed a new water heater but can't get it lit.

That's because presumably you are not a certified gas engineer. The law says new installations and servicing must be done by a qualified engineer. Call in a service tech to set it up and certify it safe.

Rudd power vent gas water heater

Short term, you can clean the hole, dry it and use Epoxy Putty to stop the leak. That part will need replacing though. https://www.google.com/search?q=Epoxy+Putty ..

Nestle Dolce Gusto: the lever won't stay down and no water flows. I'm hoping there is a simple fix for this.

Hi, Please clean your machine as described in the manual of your device. Check for any debris that would cause the lever to move in the unexpected way that it's moving. Then, you can attempt a test run of the coffee maker. If still having issue, please reach out to Nestle by dialing 1 800-745-3391. Thank you.

Our hot water heater is not working. Do we call a plumber or electrician?

You can call either. My choice for an electric water heater would be the electrician. For a gas water heater it would be a plumber who is gas certified.

How to regain lost water pressure after replacing hot water heater anode?

This important part is right at the end, you have a well!! It sounds like you may have run it dry? Check the well and the pump first. The rest is stop valves and pipes to the tank and beyond and not likely to be causing issues. Your sediment issues and problems with the anode is also due to using well water which is nearly always loaded with minerals..
