What creates a stronger electromagnet?
The strength of an electromagnet can be increased by increasing the number of loops of wire around the iron core and by increasing the current or voltage. You can make a temporary magnet by stroking a piece of iron or steel (such as a needle) along a permanent magnet.
How can the power of a magnet be increased?
Take the magnet which has lost its power and stroke it with the stronger magnet. Linear strokes in a single direction will realign the electrons within the magnet, which will help its strength to increase.
Why would a shower stop working?
A build up of pressure can cause water to leak from the bottom of the shower unit. If the shower hose is blocked, this can cause the pressure to increase.

What to check when there’s no hot water?
A water heater that produces no hot water may not be getting power, or it may have a tripped limit switch or one or more failed heating elements. First, check the water heater’s circuit breaker in the service panel to make sure it hasn’t tripped. If the breaker has tripped, switch it off, then switch it back on again.
