    Hot water in sinks, cold in showers
    We just moved into a new house yesterday. The hot water in all of the sinks in the kitchen and bathrooms work fine. However, none of the showers get hot. The showers simply have one control to turn them on, no temperature adjustment. Any ideas why this would be? HELP!

    What's the brand name of your mixing valves? Running the hot water won't change the temperature? Isit cold or simply cool. Can you furnish us with more details? Cheers, Tom

    We have three showers -- two on the top floor, one in the basement. All of them are not getting hot water. Yet, all of our sinks have hot water.

    All of the shower don't have separate hot/cold controllers -- you simply turn the handle, and the water comes on.

    It is bizarre - help?!
