[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 354883, member: 483"] My shower has 2 heads in it. Until 2 days ago you could run both heads at the same time for 25-30 minutes before we ran out of hot water. 2 days ago something happened and now one head will only run for about 10 minutes before we're plum-out of hot water. Give the heater a bit to build back up and you get the hot water back for another 10 minutes. When we do have hot water, it is just as hot as it always was. It has been this way for every shower both days. I can hear the heater running, but even so I reset the breaker just in case to no avail. There are no leaks anywhere that I can see. My house is on a concrete pad, so no lines run beneath the floor, they're all in the walls. I would think a leak would present itself if it was in the wall pretty quick. Talked to someone I kind of know who is a plumber, but he wouldn't listen to my symptoms, just kept interrupting me telling me I had a bad thermostat. He may be right, I know nothing about water heaters, but he wouldn't let me get to the part where the water is still hot. I would think we would have temperature issues if the thermostat is bad, not quantity issues? Anyone got any ideas? [/QUOTE]
