Every household has a water heater. It will be very convenient to take a bath at home, but sometimes the water heater will not give out hot water after a long time. What's the matter with the water heater not giving out hot water? What if the water heater doesn't produce hot water but only cold water?
What's wrong with the hot water in the water heater
1. The first is cold in winter. When we take a bath, we need to open both cold and hot water. If it is not opened properly, it will also make you feel very cold.
2. There is a problem with the water heater itself: it may be that a component of the water heater is damaged or blocked internally, which will affect the hot water output.
3. There may also be no hot water in the water heater. For the electric water heater, there is an indication of how much hot water is stored. You can look at the pointer in advance.
What if the water heater doesn't produce hot water but only cold water
1. Correct operation to control the water temperature:
When opening the valve of the water heater, first place the valve in the middle of cold water and hot water, feel the outlet water temperature by hand, and then fine tune it appropriately;
In addition, it is also possible that the windows of your bathroom are open or not closed. The cold wind in winter will make you feel cold, so remember to close the windows tightly.
2. Check whether the water heater is faulty:
First, check whether the safety valve of the water heater is faulty. If there is no exhaust, the air pressure in the water tank will rise, the water level will not come up, and the hot water may not be available;
In addition, check whether the inside of the water heater is blocked. If the filter screen at the water outlet is blocked, it may affect the output of hot water. Pay attention to daily cleaning at ordinary times;
If no problem is found after inspection, the water heater still does not produce hot water, which may be the internal components of the water heater are damaged. It is recommended to ask a professional to check and repair.
3. Other reasons:
Other problems may also cause the water heater not to produce hot water, such as insufficient water pressure, which requires you to communicate with the property.
In addition, if there are many people at home and the water storage capacity of the water heater is not high enough, it is recommended to replace the electric water heater with large water storage capacity, or simply replace it with a gas water heater.
