I live in Wisconsin and for the past month there has been a hot water problem. Every morning I go to take a shower the water may start a little warm but then gets cold. Since I pay for rent with the hot water included, does the landlord have to fix any hot water problems right away legally?

I need to buy a new water heater and it has to be electric. The way I am reading the requirements to be eligible for a tax credit, the electric water heater has to have an Energy Factor of 2.0 or greater. I’m not finding any electric water heaters with an Energy Factor above 0.98 though. Any specific brands and model numbers of a qualifying electric water heater will be greatly appreciated.
I appreciate the answers. Thanks for your help.

]]> We replaced the water heater about 2 years ago and have been having this problem ever since. The old water heater did not have this problem at all. We have a natural gas water heater that vents through the wall to the outside. There is only about a 3 foot pipe that goes from the water heater to the vent. The vent is a kind of round honeycombed thing. When it gets windy the pilot light gets blown out. We built a wooden box around the vent about a foot away and that helps a little, but not enough.

Is there a different type of vent that we could use that would block the wind? I was thinking something like what my dryer uses, it has a flap system that opens when the dryer is on, but I’m not sure if the pressure from the water heater would be enough to open the flaps.

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!! My wife is getting very hostile about taking cold showers!

]]> as evey other water source in the house is. The Master bats shower has a tempurature regulator that stops you at 100 degerees, which my Uncle says is in place to supply that shower with hot water faster. (Less waiting for warm hot) He says that in order to get a hotter shower his contractor said he’d have to buy a new water heater because there is sediment in the one he has. This makes no sense to me when all other water sources will scald you…even the sink a few feet away. Can’t I remove or adjust the regulator that has a higher degree on it but won’t let you turn it that far and still (if so) have less warm up time. somewhat? I think my Uncle is uninformed or am I the Idiot? ( Also his ‘contractor’ first language is spanish)
