If you don't have a thermostat valve, but only a manual hot and cold
taps it would be probably difference in water pressures.

Try turning on the hot only and gradually feeding in the cold.

This is the sort of valve that starts out cold and gets hotter as you
turn it counter-clockwise. There's only one knob, unfortunately. I'll
have to look and see what model it is. I can probably find a
replacement at Home Depot or Lowe's, if that's the problem.

I've never taken one of these apart before. Is this a pretty easy job
or can it be tricky?
