Hey all.

Can someone tell me what the heck is the problem with my water heater. Check the attached picture. Since I got here, I've been operating under the assumption that the left dial will heat my running water, and my floor, and that the middle dial will heat my floor only. I push the buttons located over their respective dials to activate them. This has worked, albeit not greatly, for almost the entire time I've been here. Lately however, I cannot get hot water to appear in my shower. The strange thing is, everything else still seems to work ok; I can heat the floor 'till its uncomfortable to stand on, and I can get hot running water to my kitchen and bathroom sinks. I just can't get any (save for a VERY small dribble) to my shower faucet.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance,

Eben

PS. Oh, and if you can tell me what that green button on the upper right is, I'd be thankful as well.

Does any of your lights blink. When I ran out of hot water, I would have a light binking. My hot water heater ran out of water, I had to turn a nob and when the water started draining out. I shut off the nob and it started working again. I had to do this about every other month. If that didn't work I called the hakwan ower and he would have someone fix it for me.

Oooh ooh

I can help with this one..

Kk the light at the top left is on WHEN your water heater is working.

The Red button basically is power.
When the green button is pushed in (on) you'll get hot water to your faucets but the floor isn't on.

When the green button is out (dark) then you'll the heat will be on (provided you have the middle dial set to something above the current temperature) and the light above the middle dial will be on.

Basically.. if you just want hot water on You want to have the power light lit, the green button light lit, and then a third light (the one on the right of the number display) will be lit.. Once you start running Hot water the "working" light will turn on.
