Freezing weather and no hot water

We are pretty new RVr's. In northern Arkansas and it has been pretty cold. We unhooked water hose, sewer hose and are running off tanks. Keeping RV thermostat no lower than 70 degrees at all times. Water compartment we are heating. Used RV antifreeze in sink and toilet. We have water but when trying for hot water.... Nothing. Any suggestions?

    That's the problem I fear. No warmer weather until at least Saturday. High today 28 with wind chills in the low teens. Tomorrows high temp 19, single digit lows over night.

    Heat so water in a pan on the stove. The hot water lines will thaw out when the weather get warmer in a few hours.

    Hot water lines -- because they are longer -- often freeze when the shorter cold water lines do not.
