Hi,
just had a bathroom remodeled.. Prior to this, the old sink would get
real hot fast. few secs.. Now it takes approximately 35 secs to get
hot... I checked the shower and tub they got hot real fast... The
shower has 3 new jets.. I have not used the shower yet as it does not
have a door, brand new and I havent used the tub either. Could this
slow getting hot water to bathroom faucset be because I have not used
the shower on a regular basis???


The other batrhoom on same floor gets hot fast.
Thanks


Check the size of the supply lines...probably way too small. Any
restriction reduces volume.

Joe



thanks
im not a plumber. but bathroom is already tiled.
when i look under the vanity where the plumbing is, is that where the
supply lines are?
thanks
