    Good morning Dionne,

    Your discription tells me that the furnace's heating the water but the problem's located in the hot water side of the tub faucet. This would be a plumbing call.
    However, if you wish to do the job yourself I can walk you through it. I'll need the brand name and type of faucet,( one handle or two knobs).
    Your choice. Regards, Tom
