I can’t get enough hot water! I’ve changed the hot water heater and I changed the mixing valve to the shower but after a few moments even though I may be the first in the shower the water becomes cool. We have a gas fired hot water heater. I have been told that the kitchen faucet may be the problem since water can intermix within the valve. As for a cross pipe problem the plumber doesn’t think that the case.
