Camper Water Heater Atwood model G6a-7, pilot ignition, only about 1/2 gallon is getting hot – HELP!?
I light my camper’s water heater pilot light and it fires up the burner. It will run for a few minutes and switch off. I go and run hot water and there is only about 1/2 gallon of hot water coming from the water heater tank. The unit was stored with an antifreeze solution when I purchased it. Can that stuff screw up the thermostat? I am not sure what the terminolgy is for the unit that controls the heat and the probe that goes into the tank, but my feeling is that something is telling the thermostat that the water is hot, when very little is. Do you have any ideas?
also, in case you think i have not turned up the temp on thermostat, i have already tried every setting and the best the heater will do is heat the water in the top of the tank.
