Starting the gas burner on a partially filled for 20 or 30 seconds would likely do no harm and running an electric heat rod would be no problem if water was high enough to cover the rod.
Something doesn’t smell right here!

That is exactly why I am asking these questions. Like I said, if they could not "reset" the switch, give me an estimate for repairs. Then they come up with this bill for $164.12; I would have happily paid for their time to evaluate the system, but don't go making all this crap up and then charging me something I really did not need.
The stuff he did on my electrical system is just as sketchy. So damn sad.
