What the team does
The technician checks the power at the double pole switch, the heater's settings and indicator, and the water flow through it, since many instant heaters only fire above a minimum flow. The mixer is checked too, because a worn cartridge can mix in cold water and look like a heater fault. You are told the cause and given a price for the repair or a replacement. Faults inside the heater's electrical parts are electrical work.
