    Problems with my shower do I need to and how do I flush the lines
    I have a shower that is upstairs and there is little to no hot water pressure and the cld is slowing up over time... I am sure that there is calcium or lime in the line. My question is how do I flush so I can once again take a shower because as it stands there is not enough pressure to force the hot water up and out of the shower head and to get a bath there are times I have to run straight hot water for like 40 min or so just to get a bath. I just want to take a shower again and wash my hair without washing it in the sink in the kitchen. Some one PLEASE help me!!
