| The gas is working, the floor heating is working (although not as well as usual) but I can't seem to get hot water today. its luke-warmish but nothing near hot. any ideas? |

| My water is slow. I start it with just a low flow, then as it gets hot, I increase it a little. |

Start with a low flow and don't turn the water on full. See if that helps. Usually with the general home ondol water-heating system, a fast rate of flow means the system can't keep up and heat the water fast enough. The result is luke-warm water.
Could be the reason. |

| crap. i thought i was going to be the hero here, but two people beat me to it. i had the same problem recently, and my wife called the security guards in our apartment to ask them what we should do. they gave the same advice as the previous two posters, and it's worked very well. |
