At that point you should just get a tankless and never have your shower cry sessions interrupted by cold water again.
Every tankless I’ve used has been a piece of crap. Constantly breaking down. Heat surging and going cold in the shower. Outright just not heating water. All within 2 years of install. Never again. Tanks only for me from now on.
You haven’t been to Europe then. I have a boiler in my basement which delivers hot water for two bathrooms and a kitchen as long as I want with constant temperature and never breaking down. That’s not even something special just the standard.
That just killed one of my personal goals, thanks.
As a Dutch person I’ve never seen a water heating system with a tank like in the US, we all use boilers and they are fantastic. Boilers are harder to use in “big” homes though.
as someone who has only ever lived in an apartment, the idea that you’d run out of hot water is so fucking insane to me
Aww so you don’t know the feeling of trying to convince yourself that the water coming out of only the hot pipe is still warm enough to continue showering.
How do you know when you’re done showering when the shower doesn’t kick you out?
