or something similar you are likely to find one of two articles posted at Orphan Espresso about how to repair a heater element that has been damaged by water leaks.\u00a0 In those articles they tell you to disconnect the power leads and get in between the metal of the boiler and the various parts of the heater element.\u00a0 You will find a center metal element wrapped in various materials such as ceramic, other metal bits, and some sorts of resin\/epoxy like material or other insulating things.\u00a0 What happens is over the years the material cracks and breaks down and absorbs water like a sponge into all the nooks and other broken bits.<\/p>\n<p>To repair this you have to test the metal boiler to element to prove there is a short with a resistance check using a multi-meter.\u00a0 If a reading between the metal body and the heater element connection shows continuity then you have a short.\u00a0 If you look around the wire and probe it with a fine metal pick you will probably see the material start to crumble and flake out.\u00a0 You will need to dig out all of the material that will come free scraping and digging until it seems solid.\u00a0 You will STILL have a short after this.\u00a0 Depending on how adventurous you want to be you have two possible options.\u00a0 If you have a heat gun you can start off there and possibly get lucky.<\/p>\n<p>Previously I had been remodeling a house and used a heat gun to help speed up drying certain paint touch ups and for removing paint from woodwork.\u00a0 I had picked up a heat gun from Home Depot to do this and had used this one linked from Amazon below:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Wagner-Digital-Heat-HT3500-503040\/dp\/B00BV14VMA\/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1457852299&amp;sr=8-18&amp;keywords=heat+gun&amp;linkCode=li3&amp;tag=roagee-20&amp;linkId=dc3feb9db850364e0a6ac1dda32f51b5\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B00BV14VMA&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=roagee-20\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nWagner Digital Heat Gun HT3500<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important;

After a few minutes check it again with the meter. After about 10 minutes of warming it up repeatedly it should dry out and show no connectivity.\u00a0 If it continues to show connectivity keep heating it up some more but if it never gets any better you might need to replace the heater.\u00a0 The article on Orphan suggests removing the heater from the boiler and baking it,.\u00a0 Depending on the age and &#8220;standardness&#8221; of your boiler you might not want to take it apart due to possibly having problems finding new gaskets.<\/p>\n<p>In my case this is a non-standard machine.\u00a0 If the gasket was damaged when taking it apart I&#8217;d have more difficulty finding a replacement.\u00a0 I may still need to do this but for now the boiler wasn&#8217;t leaking around that area so I didn&#8217;t want to risk it.\u00a0 Obviously you will need to try to drain the boiler and any water tanks before tipping your machine over to get to the heater parts if they are not available on the top or sides.<\/p>\n<p>When I flipped the machine over I had a plate.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-1042\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742-760x1024.jpg?resize=596%2C803\" alt=\"IMG_20160306_172742\" width=\"596\" height=\"803\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742.jpg?resize=760%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 760w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742.jpg?resize=297%2C400&amp;ssl=1 297w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742.jpg?resize=768%2C1035&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742.jpg?resize=111%2C150&amp;ssl=1 111w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742.jpg?resize=37%2C50&amp;ssl=1 37w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172742.jpg?w=2400&amp;ssl=1 2400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 596px) 100vw, 596px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After removing the bolts and taking off the plate I saw evidence of rust on the contacts.\u00a0 Obviously water had come from somewhere at some point and got into the heater parts and clearly rusted the connectors.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-1044\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952-1024x760.jpg?resize=568%2C422\" alt=\"IMG_20160306_172952\" width=\"568\" height=\"422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?resize=1024%2C760&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?resize=400%2C297&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?resize=768%2C570&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?resize=202%2C150&amp;ssl=1 202w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?resize=150%2C111&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?resize=50%2C37&amp;ssl=1 50w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.roastgeek.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_20160306_172952.jpg?w=2400&amp;ssl=1 2400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I went to an automotive parts store and purchased a clear liquid that removes rust.\u00a0 You want something that eats the rust off and converts it.\u00a0 Not something that converts the rust where it is and builds new layers.\u00a0 Usually the kind that removes it and converts is somewhat clear or yellowish.\u00a0 The one I used was &#8220;pH neutral&#8221;

This epoxy is NSF certified for food\/drinking water contact and is safe for 500 degree Fahrenheit contact. You have to let the epoxy cure for at least an hour before painting it. I tested the multimeter readings after installing the epoxy. It shows a short until the epoxy is cured. The epoxy hardens in just under 15 minutes. I used some tools for working with moulding clay for making decorative beads and figures to push the epoxy down into the gap and smooth it off.<\/p>\n<p>I picked up the tools from Michael&#8217;s (a craft supply chain) and paid way more (4-6 times) for it than the Amazon price:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Darice-11-Piece-Clay-Cleaning-Tool\/dp\/B001ED3JMS\/ref=as_li_ss_il?s=arts-crafts&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1457854804&amp;sr=1-3&amp;keywords=clay+tools&amp;linkCode=li3&amp;tag=roagee-20&amp;linkId=41a134d9b31e731050c126f703ea2697\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B001ED3JMS&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=roagee-20\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/>11 piece Clay Tool Set<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=roagee-20&amp;l=li3&amp;o=1&amp;a=B001ED3JMS\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After it curing for an hour I then used an insulator varnish that I also picked up from Amazon:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B008OA7DDK\/ref=as_li_ss_il?psc=1&amp;redirect=true&amp;ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01&amp;linkCode=li3&amp;tag=roagee-20&amp;linkId=d9f0e3ae2c19bde4526fd163d056abd0\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B008OA7DDK&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=roagee-20\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/>MG Chemicals 4228 Red GLPT Insulating Varnish, 55 ml Bottle<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=roagee-20&amp;l=li3&amp;o=1&amp;a=B008OA7DDK\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The more commonly recommended insulator paint is something called Glyptal.

Glyptal has the same basic properties.<\/p>\n<p>After letting it dry I found the same test results with the multimeter showing the short repaired.
