Atwood H20 Heater wont pass water
Havent used it for about 2-months and now at new RV site it wont allow water to move. The gas thermo flame comes on and stays. It seemed to work after I hooked it to this sites water valve after it...

Possible there is something lodged in the hot side of the faucet. Parts of a rubber washer from somewhere in the system. I've run into something like that, couple times, in SB houses.
Maybe, an internal filter in the faucet. Had one in a TT that plugged up with sand.
Maybe, a bi-pass valve got turned to wrong direction.
Maybe, the check valve, noted above.
Not a lot of possibilities, but, the few listed, can be a pain to troubleshoot.
Hot side water will not flow from any faucet I try. Cold does at each faucet.
Since water flows from hot side even when cold, gotta be that hot side "discharge valve".
i stayed at Al Oak Mnt Park for a month w/i using the hotwater tank. Maybe the cold got to it somehow.
Note the jeating furnace blows air to the water tank areas. But,..I mostly used elec heaters and not the furnace while there. Saved on having to keep getting propane.
There is a "elec option" heating element I read about..A kit..Stink I'm gonna install that before too long.
Thanks
