If the water is seeping up through the floor it could be a result of insufficiently sealed foundations or there could be cracks in the foundation floor.
The strange part is that both sinks in the same bathroom will get hot.
Water heater manufacturers and plumbers are more sensitive to scalding danger now than they used to be.
The bathroom is on the 2nd floor no hot water in the sink the shower or the bath tub can you help me please.
In your case the largest restriction is your water conditioning system which can lower the system pressure by as much as 10 psi before the water ever heads to the second floor.
My water heater is in the basement so i expected it to take a little longer to get hot but i just let it run and it was warm ish for a minute but finally turned cold before ever getting to be as hot as i would like.
I found out the hot wat.
There s no pump in houses is there.
Water will take just as long to travel through the pipes to the second floor as before and it will lose a similar amount of heat along the way.
My hot water heater is turned up as high as it will go.
The first step in drying out your home is to make sure the humidity in the room is not too high the temperature is low and the air is circulating.
Here s the best part.
Get any soaked bathroom rugs out of the house too.
In this video i was trouble shooting as to why this apartment only had warm water getting up to the 2nd floor shower.
If you have a wet dry shop vac in the house you can utilize that as well.
My guess is that your new water heater is set to a lower temperature than your old one.
If the water comes through the basement and if you re on a second floor how does the water get up to the second floor.
For between 180 to 500 depending on how fancy a unit you want to buy some have motion sensors built in simple ones use just a timer you can attach this unit to your water heating system and have hot water up to 80 faster that means within seconds in the summer than you get today from your standard water heating system.
With a water conditioning system in the line it would not be uncommon to get less than 20 psi maximum to the second floor with a system that produces a maximum of 50.
