Oil question/ Hot water?

Question

I recently ran out of oil and my hot water ran out. We have since filled the tank up but the hot water is not kicking back on. How long does it generally take for the hot water to return to form? I reset my boiler about an hour or so ago and the "hot water" was still cold. I need your help!!

Answer 1

you didn't say wether the burner was running or not. if yes , depending on how large your tank is it could take an hour to heat up. if the burner is not running it is probably airbound. you need to bleed the pump until only oil is coming out of the bleeder. then restart pump and note if the burner is fired up
