Cold weather chills your home’s pipes and the water that travels through them to the water heater unit. This colder water takes longer to heat before arriving to your faucet. You can try increasing the temperature of your water heater’s thermostat a few degrees to solve this problem. If this doesn’t remedy the issue, try applying insulation to the system or warming up the room in which the unit is located. Call our water heater professionals if your system is still cutting your family short on the hot water you deserve even after making these changes!
