I have had 3 melted electric element in a 6 year old electric hot water tank in the last 5 months.
Problem started when I flushed the hot water tank 5 months ago. Problems started right away. Tripped breaker then no hot water... Element melted. Happened again 2 months later .. Then just happened again.
It's a 40 gallon tank with 2 3000W elements running non simultaneous.
Any thoughts or time for a new tank?
