In response to Re: Dual water heaters
: After installing a jacuzzi awhile back, I needed to add another water heater. I hired someone to do it, but I've had problems ever since. The cold and hot seem to mix together on a single handle faucet.When I close the valves to the second heater, everything is fine, so I know it's not a faucet problem. I think the piping must be wrong at the heaters. They are piped with a tee into both cold inlets, and a tee from both hot outlets. Is this the proper way? : Thanks Bob, the tees must be exactly in the middle of both heaters. If not it will draw from the closest heater first. Dale's Plumbing Service LMP
