I just bought a house, and the hot water tank was only 6 months old
when I moved in. We've only been in it a week, but it seems that if
two people have normal (5 - 10 min) showers in the morning, the hot
water runs out by the time the second person is half done. I know
noting about a hot water heater except how to change the temperature
setting, so am a little lost here. Does anyone have a comment or
suggestion about what may be going on, or what I can do before I have
to call a plumber? Thanks in advance.


there was a recall on some ho****er heaters that have a bad fill tube.
the one symptom was hot water ran out fast. Do you have a make model
and year you can share?

that ended a few years ago (1999?). OP's is much newer than that.


Ok that means my idea is out.
