I replaced my gas water heater, now my hot water has very low pressure. Do you know what I can do?

Question

The hot water pressue was fine before, not it is very slow.

Answer 1

Here's a bunch of guesses - If you used a different heater then it may simply have more pressure drop.  The other possibility is air trapped in the lines or in the tank itself.  The tank may have a pressure regulator associated with it that has a setting that can be changed.

Answer 2

Check the screens in your showers, faucets and wash machines.  Changing the water heater probably dislodged deposits in the pipes that are clogging the screens.

Answer 3

Have you checked to see if the valves are fully turned on?
