Winter’s cooler weather has reached Tampa Bay. It’s not the biting cold, snow and ice that are hitting some places across the U.S., but it’s cool enough for a sweater and to make you look forward to a long, hot shower.

Trouble is, you can’t get any hot water. Few things make a chilly day worse than having to take a cold shower.

Home improvement expert Bob Vila says the problem is likely your hot water heater. How you proceed, Vila says, depends on the type water heater you have.

If it’s gas, you should check to see if the pilot light has gone out. If so, relight it. It could also be a faulty thermocouple or a problems in the gas line.

If it’s an electrical water heater, try resetting the circuit breaker and/or restarting the hot water heater itself.

If none of those suggestions work, Vila says, it’s time to call in a professional.

“Concern over safety coupled with the technical nature of a water heater repair mean that it’s best to leave the work to the professionals,” Vila says. “If your tank leaks onto the ground or inside the heater’s compartments, bring in professionals to service your water heater before it damages the heating elements or stops thermostat function.”
