I recently bought my first house. After spending some time in here I wished I hadn't. One of my many problems is my bathroom. Namely the ability to get hot water into that room.
The first day we got here I wanted to take a shower but no hot water. I remembered I had the dishwasher on and turned it off. A few minutes later I got my first (and only) warm shower in my new home. The faucet in the bathroom is the same. I had the hot water once and not since. Everywhere else in the house is just fine for hot water. No problems at all.
But try as I might I cannot get hot water in my bathroom again. The sellers never mentioned any problems like this but seemed to have forgotten a number of other things as well.
The day I got my hot water was the first day the water heater had been on for about a week or so. I don't know if that makes any difference. I haven't been in the crawl space yet to check out the plumbing under the house yet... I need to buy a full body suit before I dare dive into that.
Thanks for the help.
