Another thing to check: your hot water tank may have a lot of scale and other stuff in it. Remove the anode rod (big hex nut near bottom on the outside) and squirt fresh water in from a nozzle, do this several times in succession, you will likely flush out a lot of junk. If the anode rod looks badly pitted (or is missing), replace it with a new one. They only last a year or two.
