These Tankless water heaters attempt to heat water as it quickly travels through a short series of heated copper pipes. A high volume of water at an accelerated speed has little time to heat up as it passes through its heating source. You can turn up the temperature (which you undoubtably tried) and turn the water volume all the way down. These settings will produce the hottest temperature capable of the unit - given the entry temperature of your water source.
Most underground water enters at app 52 degrees - and becomes even colder due to ambient temperatures. Difficult to raise this temperature 60-70 degrees in a few seconds of heating.
I've routed a series of copper pipes adjesent to the home heating system in an attempt to pre-heat incomming water. It's only a few degrees warmer, but results a 20- 30 degree hotter delivery.
I have installed some top end units that simply delivers Hot water without compermise.

I don't know anything about fixing plumbing problems, generally when I try to fix something it just ends up worse. That's why whenever I have a problem with anything, I end up calling the professionals. Last week when my water pipe burst I just called a plumber and he came over and fixed it right away. It's so nice to know that there are people out there who can fix those kinds of problems. http://www.hallcontracting.com/home.html
