    I take it you're complaining about a lack of hot water and not a loss of pressure. How old is the house and what type of pipes do you have? Copper, galvanized or plastic? Regards, Tom

    Hi Tom -
    Our house it about 20 yrs. Old. Water pressure upstairs seems to be down a little as well. Think we have a combo of copper and pvc pipes. Thanks.
