Excessive water temps cause heat loss at the tank and through the hot water pipes. Low temps, or short supply of hot water may indicate a burned out element. This could leak current indefinitely and still furnish a limited supply of heated water from the other element. A leaking faucet that runs a small 3" stream before breaking into drops uses about 1000 gallons of water per month and as much as 250 K.W.H. per month of power to heat this water. A water pump that "short cycles" wastes electricity. A foot valve that leaks causes a pump to run too much. The above suggestions are thru the courtesy of your Columbia Basin Electric Co-op, Inc.
