When the internal temperature of your water heater rises to unsafe levels, the emergency cut-off switch is thrown. Resetting your water is simple enough; just press the red reset button on the ECO which is typically attached to the water heater’s thermostat. If your home’s water is constantly resetting, it’s likely time to call a professional plumber.
