Electric Water Heater Repair in Des Moines, IA

A tripped high limit switch cuts power when the tank overheats from sediment or a failed thermostat. Melvin's Water Heater Service resets the switch after confirming element resistance. Upper and lower elements are tested separately because only one may fail. Wiring connections are tightened to prevent arcing at the terminal block. One paragraph explains the sequence of operation from upper to lower element.
Final checks include voltage at the junction box and proper grounding. Call (833) 774-1697.
