Helen Your Questions About Garage Heaters Electric

Helen asks…

not blowing breakers???????????????????

ok i just bought this trailer and it was made in 91. it had lots of water damage in the floors and some in the walls. i have most of this taken care of at this point but now the electric is acting all funny. it started with me having too many things on one plug really but i wasnt blowing breakers and i know when i draw too much (as our 3 space heaters cannot be on the same circuit or the breaker trips within 5 min) that they will blow.so one day the power on the overloaded plug goes out so i think ok go flip the breaker….but it wasnt tripped. also the plug like 1 ft away on the other side of the wall (i think on the same circuit) and the one caddy from it all 3 dont work(1 here in my room on the pc and the other 2 are in the LR). then on the other end of the house the bathroom, laundry room and both kichen lights wont work. but the bathrooms plugs stil work and so do the ones in the kitchen but not so much in the laundry room.o yea the light/fan above the stove dont work either but the stove does. also the air is a wall unit and when i turn it on it comes on but on high it is barely doing anything and its 220. i think the previos owners added it as the wire was just ran under the house to it.so anyway the first time it happened i distributed the power to some other circuits using extension cords as its my pc.monmitor.music.modem.printer.light. so its all in one spot. so after an hour or so everything came back on by itself and i got my pc going again and in 15 min it went out again. i waited forever and it never came back on. the next morninig when i got up it was all working fine again. so a week goes by and it does it again. overnight i had no power on all the mentioned stuff butt everythig else works and the breakers are not blowing.so today it done it again and when i started the air it was slow at first(unusual) then all of a sudden it started working fine and so was everythig else.i have one of those little things you plug in and the the 3 lights say if its hot/nuetral/open/etc. when it works it works and when it dont it dont so no help there. also since the first time now the bathroom light seems to take 5 seconds or so to come on every time now. if some one could give any ideas it would be good. when i had the floors and drywall out i seen alot of wire and all of it looked OK but IDK S*** about house wiring but no loose connections or cuts/splice or even melted or nuthin(really it all looked new) but i know it hassent been replaced however the air was put in by previos owners and i think they got power for the garage and outside light by tapping in behind the stove as once the stove stopped working and i checked all breakers (in the breaker box inside) and it turned out that it was outside opposite the stove on the wall and when i flipped it the stove/garage/light had power. but the stove is 220 and i have 110 in the garage and i assume the light is 110 as well. but that one breaker outside definatly controlled the 3. sorry this was so long but i dont wanna hear i left out important info so… if i did let me now……………….(ppl have already told me its a fire hazzard so….maybe trouble shooting ideas)

Susan asks…

What could cause a water heather to not heat up and make a “bang” sound?

We hadn’t used the hot water since early this morning and it was fine however when trying to take a shower this evening, there was no hot water. Went into the garage to flip the breaker to see if it was something electrical and it makes a bang noise like a bass drum.

John Your Questions About Electric Garage Heaters

John asks…

Can someone help me calculate the electrical load for my new house?

I used to know how to do this, but I haven’t done it for so long, I can’t remember how. I don’t know the nameplate data on the equipment because we haven’t picked it out yet. I’m going to have 2 split heat pump systems, one at 2.5 ton and the other at 1.5 ton. I will have an 80 gallon electric water heater, a Jacuzzi tub, dishwasher, electric stove, fridge, freezer, washer, electric dryer, garage with automatic door opener, 4 bedroom, 3.5 baths within 3100 square feet including the basement. To calculate it, just use whatever the average wattage is for each appliance since I don’t know what it is yet. I appreciate any help I can get.
sirknightrob, I do have electric heat. I have 2 heat pumps which are split units. One uses 10kw and the other uses 5kw.
I’ve tried the online load calculators and the last one I did said that my total amp load was 194 A. Maybe I did something wrong, but that’s pretty close to 200 A! Maybe I need a bigger service….

Lizzie Your Questions About Electric Garage Heaters

Lizzie asks…

No hot water, no frozen pipes, what in the world could it be?

We woke this morning to no hot water. No water coming out of the hot faucet at all but the cold works just fine. The garage door was left open last night (where our electric water heater is) and it was well below freezing. Hubby checked the pipes out there and said they aren’t frozen…….so I don’t know what else could possible be wrong. Any ideas would be much appreciated!
