Hot water doesn't stay hot

Any buddy's hot water not staying very hot. We can shower with only hot on and get a nice warm shower but not very good for washing dishes. Help

Could be the winterization valves if applicable. Please read here:

I see you posted in the FR3 section but no other specifics.
Is it a tank style water heater or tankless?

Also, check your outdoor shower. Make sure you didn't turn off the water via the shower head instead of the Hot/Cold knobs.

Kansas is spot on. My bet is the outside knobs are not turned all the way off, but instead the outside shower head valve is switched to off.
