Low hot water pressure reply
Thank you for your guys' input. I have been looking at other threads on the matter. Sorry for the same question as many others, I am new to this site and was having a little trouble feeling my way around at first. I will try to flush the heater out a little and see what happens. I did take the screens out of the kitchen sink and the two bathroom sinks and found little rocks and white stuff in them. For the showers though I am assuming you have to take the whole fixture out of the walls?? To clean them out. (I also have a gas boiler as a furnace. I know absolutely nothing on how this thing runs. It has nothing to do with the water heater though does it? It seems about the time I kicked the furnace on is about the time I started to run out of hot water a little faster. I will probably post a new question about the heating in the heating department.) As for the cold waterpipe that runs to the bottom of the tank, How do I find out if it does or not? Also, there are no shut off valves anywhere near the water heater. Well, there is one sitting right above the tank from the cold water line, but it just turns and turns so I am thinking it does not work. Thanks again guys.
