We had a new hot water heater installed 1-2 years ago. It worked great up until about 2 weeks ago, where we all noticed that it no longer was heating to the same temperature. I can continue to crank the heat adjustment up, but that makes me nervous that I'll end up burning my children if it suddenly snaps back. What is the best thing to do to start fixing this?

It ends up it was not directly the hot water heater. We have a leak in a hot water line that goes down into the foundation of our basement which is even worse. I thought I'd come back and update in case someone sees this in the future. Thank you to all who answered.
