We are having a problem with sporadic hot water pressure and volume in all faucets, kitchen sink, shower and bathroom vanity. Cold water pressure and volume are good in all locations. Sometimes when you turn on the hot water, it's ok, the next time its turned on, its just a trickle, again its all locations, not just one, and only on the hot water side . It can't be the pressure regulator or the city supply as they both would affect cold as well as hot water. As it affects all faucets, regardless of location, I think the problem has to be somewhere between the hot water tank and the first T in the hot water distribution line. So far I have flushed the hot water tank, bypassed the hot water tank and blew all the lines clear with compressed air, disassembled and re assembled the line from the back of the hot water tank to the first T which goes to the shower. All with no success. Any ideas on a fix would be greatly appreciated.
