How many gallons is your total system ?

I like to run between 3 and 5 watts/gallon, but some think that's overkill

no this is a new tank. everything moved. 70 gallon display but about 160 gallons total volume.

I just think it couldnt keep up because my basement is so cold. (basement sump)

At my old house we had in floor heating i dont think these heaters ever ran which is probably why i never noticed it
