Our home (living) is just over 3,000 sq ft. We have 3 baths (2 with shower/tubs, 1 master with separate shower and jacuzzi tub). We are on city water, we have 2 AO Smith 40 gallon electric water heaters with a Taco recirculation pump.
Whenever we take showers we always have plenty of hot water. However, when we use our Jetta Jacuzzi tub there is never enough hot water. There is a single faucet, with two levers (one hot, one cold).
Any suggestions to get more hot water?
Also, when I run the hot side full blast we get some sediment in the tub whereas if I only turn the lever on 1/4 of the way we don't.
My understanding is the tub has a mixing valve. But there is no aerator screen or anything in the faucet head.
Thanks for any suggestions. The home is only 3 years old so I'd prefer not to have to replace the water heaters unless we have to.
Also, both water heaters are simply set to their default temperatures.
