Check to see the electric service to your house has not
been interrupted. If this is the case, contact the electric
company.

If you had experienced very hot water and now no hot water,
the problem may be due to the high temperature shut off
system. See High Temperature Shut Off System in the
Troubleshooting section.

During very cold weather, the incoming water will also be
colder and it will require a longer time to become heated.

The hot water usage may exceed the capacity of the water
heater. If so, wait for water heater to recover after abnormal
demand. Also examine pipes and faucets for possible water
leaks.

Service Department.
