My hot water heater is starting to run out of hot water sooner than it used to. I can't make it thru a "normal" shower without having to adjust the temp.
Two people have told me that it sounds like an element is going bad, and that it's something I can replace myself. My experience in plumbing is limited to jiggling the toilet handle when it occasionally keeps running.
So do I want to try this on my own? The most advice I got so far is a) shut the breaker off BEFORE emptying tank. Ok, that I can do.
What next?
