    Intermitten Hot water to Faucet
    I have hot water to all the fixtures in my home (Kitchen, Laundry, Bath) most of the time, but occasionally, when I go to turn my hot water on in my bathroom sink faucet, I get nothing. The cold will work. The hot & cold will work in every other fixture at the same time, but only the hot water to that fixture will stop working. I am stumped because eventually it will come back on without me doing anything. Can someone shed some light on this please?

    It is a 2 handle Glacier Bay, and not even a year old. I installed it myself and can do most of my own plumbing work, although I stay away from Boilers and water heaters. Does it sound like a hardware problem?

    Yes it does sound like a hardware problem and I'll bet Tom has a diagram for you tomorrow morning.
