Shut down the boiler =NO HOT WATER
« on: May 03, 2015, 03:51:31 PM »

Hello,
  I shut my boiler down Saturday morning and now I'm without hot water.  I'm not sure what's going on. I closed the valve that usually brings the boiler water to the hot water tank.  The breaker is on. I even kicked it off and back on to verify.  Anyone else have this issue?

Is it a electric water heater?  Are you sure it's operational?  How is your setup plumbed?

It was operational in December, my boiler was just installed and I replaced a heating element a year ago.
I don't know how to post pics on here...

Check the reset button on the element thermostat if it is an electric heater.

I pushed it and it clicked. Should it click? Is there just one located on the top element? 50gal tank
