Default Hot water coming out of Cold faucet

Jim,

I replaced the filter in the shower handle yesterday, but it didn't do
any good. I also turned off the water to the hot and cold on the
washing machine but I still got the same response. I am leaning towards
having an expert come out and examine.

Thanks,
Collins

water coming out of what is supposed to be the cold faucet is very hot.
After about 30 seconds, it will go back to cold.

Could be feedback from a water heater connection.
But can also be caused by faulty Single-Handle faucets
or by a washing machine inlet solenoid valve.

Try and isolate fixtures like these (byclosing shutoffs)
and see if the problem disappears.

If not, then look for more complicated causes.
