Need some input.. I started my smoker this morning at work to do some ribs. Set it up pluged it in
started to heat up perfect.  Went to kitchen got ribs ready went to check on smoker and put the hot water in only at 100 degrees after half hour. checked again half hour later 90 degrees. And now nothing. Moved to different nothing. Both light are on but nothing happening. Any help would be very helpfull.. Thanks in advanced.

Turn it all on and take a look at the heating element in the tower and see if it begins to glow red after a couple of minutes.  If it doesn't, unplug and replug all of your connections, especially the power jumper cable between the smoke generator and the tower.  Sometimes they work their way out and have to be plugged in very firmly.  If that doesn't help you may have a defective heating element.

Just smoke them for a couple of hours using the heat from the generator then finish them on the grill or oven. You will be fine
