Why is my Lochinvar Water Heater not producing enough hot water?
- BBrandon GarciaAug 8, 2025
Several factors can cause insufficient hot water. The thermostat might be set too low; try setting the thermostat dial to a higher temperature. The upper or lower temperature probe might be out of calibration, requiring a qualified service agency to check continuity and resistance, and replace the probes if needed. The main manual gas shutoff valve could be partially closed; ensure it's fully open. The heater might be too small for the demand; try spacing out water usage to allow the heater time to restore water temperature. Finally, the heater recovery may be slow, requiring a qualified service agency to check the gas input and look for inlet air or flue gas exhaust blockages.
