∙ 13y agono you dont It is safe to leave the water on, whislt changing the stem If you don't want any problems, turn the pressure off.
If your hot water pressure is lower than the cold water pressure, it could indicate a problem with the hot water heater, such as sediment buildup in the tank or a faulty pressure relief valve. It may also be due to a blockage or leak in the hot water pipes. It is recommended to have a plumber inspect and address the issue to ensure proper functioning of your hot water system.
Water expands when it is heated, this expansion increases the pressure. The bladder tank absorbs the extra pressure, protecting the hot water heater.
I would`nt... It serves no purpose. If the water is off there is no pressure when you turn on the tap, hot or cold, so you would be heating water you can`t use.
If you have an instantaneous hot water heater, and your faucet doesn't flow enough water it won't turn on the water heater. Thus requiring another faucet to be turned on.
Same as any hot water heater. Turn the gas valve to off.
turn off your water
It's not a bad idea to turn off the water heater especially if it is electric. It will consume power the whole time you are gone to keep the water hot and wastes a lot of electricity.
You can determine if there is air in a hot water heater by listening for a gurgling or bubbling noise from the water pipes when the hot water is running. Additionally, if the hot water pressure is inconsistent or lower than usual, it could indicate air in the system. Finally, if you notice sputtering or spurts of air coming out of the faucets when you turn on the hot water, it suggests there is air in the water heater.
Only if installed incorrectly
