    Baseboard heater not working
    I have baseboard heating and two or three years ago I had two replaced on internal walls with forced air wall heaters. I didn't have the thermostats replaced. All of a sudden they won't work, and neither does the baseboard heater on the same thermostat as one of them. The thermostats appear to work. I reset the breakers and didn't notice anything wrong there. Any suggestions?

    Start tracking down the voltage circuit. When the voltage stops you will have found the problem.

    I had some friends come by and they were able to reset the breaker, so now the heaters work. They've got the hands I guess lol. Now I've got to find out if the breaker is going bad. Thanks for your help!!
