I have a Rheem PVW50 water tank that runs for over 1 hour after a few minutes in the shower.
It started doing this a few weeks ago and I am planning on getting a new one installed tomorrow.
The tank was installed 21 years ago and I had it completely serviced about 8 years ago before I did a buy out.
Any ideas on what would be causing the unit to be constantly running for so long?
It previously ran to heat the water but would shut down within a 8-10 minutes.
Just wondering if there is something that I can get the technician to check and repair instead of having to replace the entire unit.
Thanks in advance.
