Just got a new g.e. 50 gallon elec. water heater. Been 2 hours but no hot water. Any idea how long it takes?

Should have hot water in about 45 minutes. Check your breaker and make sure it is on. You may need to turn the thermostat up on the tank. Should be an inspection panel on front of tank to adjust temp.

Your water heater should have a recovery rate ( how many gallons per hour it heats) It is probably somewhere between 30 gallons per hour and 40 gph, So by now you should notice warmer water.

you should notice a rise in temp in about 30 minutes. It should be fully heated in about 1 1/2 hours.
Can you hear the element heating?
