Hi ,
School me on how a 220 volt AC hot water heater works . I know the basics. Mine isn't very old at lest within the last 5 years . About 30 - 40 gallon . Located in root celler below utility room. Both thermostats set on 120. Dual elements. Have to take a speed shower or run out of hot water in less than 5 minutes .Had a bad hot water leak about two months ago leaked for about a week before I could fix it . Tripped breaker . Reset and worked , fixed leak and worked for a few weeks and tripped breaker again . Reset breaker and it works , but as before hot water doesn't last long ,app. 5 minutes . Tested with digital tester a couple of weeks ago . Used all the hot water and went down and tested it as it was reheating. I had ( without going back in cellar to retest , but from memory ) app. 120 vac - 220 vac at the top element and 110 at bottom element . I know that the elements unscrew from them to replace , but do you use a special sockets / wrenchs or just everyday tools ? For what it's worth we are on city water and I'm only in there to bathe and wash hair ,shave and brush teeth . Mom takes a bath and uses hot water to wash clothes three times a week , at least three loads . Hot water used to last longer .Any ideas ? Thanks for any and all help .
