    No hot water in 2 bathrooms
    The showers and sinks in two of our bathrooms do not get any hot water. After waiting for an extended period, the water gets lukewarm at best. Electric Rheem 81V52DT 50 gallon water heater seems to be in good working order. The laundry room sink, washer, kitchen and 3rd bathroom get plenty of hot water. Thanks for your help!

    Did this come on gradually or did it happen all of a sudden?

    Seemed to be sudden. Some additional info if you think this will help: bought the house
    About 4 months ago, it was a foreclosure and had been vacant
    For almost a year. Hot water heater had a faulty pressure valve
    Which I replaced. When we first moved in the hot water worked fine
    At all plumbing fixtures. Biggest problem is the hot water took quite a long
    Time to reach the fixtures. One story Florida home @ 3500 sqft. The laundry room
    Sink, located directly next to the water heater produces very hot water immediately.
    Also replaced the upper thermostat on the water heatr thinking this
    May be the problem, but no change. Thanks again for helping me out
    Here, I really appreciate it.
