I have no idea what's going on. My wife and I just moved in to a house and don't have enough money to pay for the furniture much less a plumber lol so any help would be greatly appreciated.
The hot water only lasts long enough for one bath usually. Sometimes not even that much. Other times it seems to last for quite a while.
During my showers, there will be several times each shower where it gets cold all of a sudden for a few seconds. I'm the only one up (early morning) and no washing machines or faucets are running nor is there a toilet being flushed.
Because of the kind of faucet the shower has I have to turn some cold water on with the hot to get enough water pressure, so as the hot water gets less hot I slowly inch the cold water down. But, every time I move the cold water down even a millimeter the water will get really cold for a second, then really hot, and then settle back to normal.
What on earth could be going on?? Any ideas? We bought the house from my wife's parents and they said there wasn't any problem before.
