Trying to gain some knowledge before calling a plumber. Back in 2001, I completed a major addition to my home - 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a laundry and a few other things. I also expanded my hot water supply by adding a 50 gallon gas water heater. Both water heaters are tied into the entire house, but the new water heater is closest to the two new bathrooms and laundry. One bathroom - furthest from the new tank, has always been slow to warm, and it never gets to the temp I have the water heater set at. It also getting worse. Just to be clear, the same behavior is in the bathroom sink. The shower and/or the sink are set to full hot. Water flow seems to be normal.
I'm curious as to possible reasons for this behavior. I cannot get my head around some issue with the shower valve when the sink does it as well. Further, since the water flow is okay, my thought is that there must be some restriction in the hot water feed. But then, if the water flow seems normal, this doesn't seem right to me as well.
Appreciate any thoughts on the matter.
