The pilot light lit but got ridiculously hot and went out. Is there a way to regulate this? We were not able to get any hot water.
Model Year is 2005
Winterized, a WH is drained and bypassed to save 6+ gal antifeeze.
YOU MUST have WH VALVES set to USE (vs WINTERIZE) for water to flow into WH TANK; when first connected allow a few minutes of pump run or city water, THEN open momentarily the RELIEF VALVE to verify filled;
THEN YOU CAN TURN ON WH.
NEVER PUT COLD WATER INTO AN EMPTY HOT WATER HEATER, OR IT WILL RUPTURE, allow it to cool 15+ minutes if YOU MADE THAT MISTAKE.
