Water Heater Question
We have a 2016 Grand Design Reflection 337 with an Atwood Gas/Electric water heater. It is still heating the water but the temperature is noticeably cooler than in the past. Is there something I nee...

Atwood it should not matter if on gas or electric or both.
What does matter?
Three things usually possibly 4
One: Bypass valves. are they all fully in the USE position?
Two: "Dog Shower" Actually the outdoor shower used to wash up after a sewer dump/hose activity... I have fixed a few by mentioning the cut off valve in the head stops water flow. but allows cold water to cross over to the hot lines if both hot and cold valves are open.. Optional: the main shower may have a cut off on the head as well same effect. (that's the #4)
3: how do you put 10 gallons of hot water into a six gallon hat?
Easy, heat the water to like 180 then use a thermostatic mixing valve to blend in cold down to 120.. and if you have that kind of water heater that valve may need attention.
