    Could be a clogged hot inlet on your faucet. If you can post a picture of it or tell us the brand/model we can hekp unclog it. In the meantime, remove the aerator and tell us if you bits of white junk.

    You could have a frozen pipe, a blocked hot water valve in the faucet or a blocked stop under the sink. Turn off the hot water under the sink and disconnect the riser from the faucet. Put the hose in a container and slowly turn on the stop valve. Any water? If yes, you have a debris or another blockage in the hot side of the faucet. If no, you have a blockage in the stop, the riser or a frozen line. Is it a single handle or 2 handles? Let us know what you find. Brian

    Sorry to hear about your weather. We have relatives in Plano. At least it's not Chicago. Get back when you can. Brian

    Do you even get a drop of water with just the hot turned on? I am in Chicago, blizzard blowing 20" of fresh snow tonight then sub zero but I'm lucky all water is working

    Bob, hope you are surviving well. We have had almost 2" or rain in Atlanta so you can see how much moisture is in the air. Good Luck, Brian.
