I can't stand shower heads that don't put out enough water. So when the flow from my new shower head was weak, I drilled out the plastic flow restrictor. Now my shower rocks, but the water heater can't keep up. It's 10years old so I figure it's time to replace it anyway.
Question 1- If I replace the old 40 Gal gas water heater with a new 50 Gal(with better recovery), am I likely to still have the same problem?
Question 2- Should I consider a tankless heater to resolve this problem?
I know I should probably put the restrictor back in and live with a sissy shower just to save energy and water...
