    Aerators on faucets can make the hot water cloudy. If you put it in a glass, does it clear up quickly? Is the hot water cloudy from any other fixture? If you put it in a glass and it clears quickly, no worries, just air mixed in with the water. Also, is the water extremely hot, to hot to hold your hand under? If so, you may need to adjust the temp setting on your water heater down to 120.
