Hi all -

I have a 50 gal gas powervent waterheater, but I run out of hot water
frequently. Can I buy another electric one & feed the hot from my existing
heater into the inlet for the new electric one?

Figure that might be the cheapest way since the electric one will only
really need to maintain the temp, rather than heating it & I won't have to
spend $$$ on another powervent model.

Thanks!

Could be filled with sediment...

yeah adding another in series is a good option, how many BTUs is the
power vent, i had a friend with this trouble turned out his tanks
burner was only 28K BTU

power vents often are lower btu...........
