I have very low hot water pressure (cold water is fine). I was wondering if there may be a lime build-up in the hot water tank line. How do I eliminate the lime from the hot water tank line?

" How do I eliminate the lime from the hot water tank line? You first flush your hot water heater. Let me show you how. For long life and fewer troubles you should keep your heater clear of mineral build-up by flushing on a regular schedule. Attach a hose to the boiler drain at the bottom of the tank. With the pressure on, open the boiler drain and let it run until the water runs clear. You will see a spurt of red,(rust) followed by white grains,(lime or calcium carbonate). This shouldn't take more then a few minutes. Do this monthly to keep it clear. Now flush out your hot water lines on ALL fixtures that are affected . Now pull each aerator and clean the screens. Be sure you put them back togather the same way you took them out. Don't forget to flush it out every month. Your heater will thank you for it. If you still have a problem then click on back. Hope this helps, Tom
