The old unit was toast, the tank was leaking and apparently the elements were failing or I was running just with one, because the difference in the water temps now is incredible.

For example before I would set my shower dial to the 10 o'clock position for a comfortable shower. Now with the new heater I have it set at 2 o'clock to get the same amount of hot water, which is considerably less.


BTW I learned yesterday that my water heater uses more energy than my a/c. I learned this through FPL.com, my local power company.
