Last night, I was telling my brother about the low water pressure, especially the hot water I get in my kitchen faucet. He looked underneath the sink and turned the hot and cold water shut-off valves, so no water came out. Afterwards, he turned them back on and checked the water. I thought everything was back to normal. However, the next day I had no hot water coming out of my kitchen faucet. Prior to my brother turning off the valves, I did get hot water (the pressure was just low). I have turned the hot and cold shut off valves on and off numerous times, but only the cold water works. What happened to my sink? It's a single-lever faucet with the extendable hose. There are no kinks in the hose. I have not checked the dishwasher. The faucet if fairly new as the kitchen was done over within the past 5 years. I just bought the house a month ago. Water heater is electric with 80 gallon tank. I don't understand why it doesn't work just from shutting off the valve. The weather has not gone below 50 degrees.
The house has 2 full baths. I have had the hot/cold water pipes turned off in the guest bathroom for about 3 weeks while I have been trying to install a new vanity, paint etc. But not sure this would impact the kitchen in any way. I tried to connect the supply lines in the guest bathroom yesterday, but my supply lines were too short.
House was built in 1975, 3 bedroom ranch.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
