If the hot water runs out after one shower, the heater is undersized or struggling. Here is the Millcreek guide.
The sediment
A tank full of sediment holds less hot water. A flush often restores capacity.
The element
On electric heaters, a failed lower element means only the top half heats.
The size
If the heater was always marginal, it may be undersized for the household.
