Hot Water Issues: Why Your Faucet Might Be Running Cold

When a faucet experiences a lack of hot water during use, it's important to identify the underlying causes. Below, we'll discuss potential reasons for a faucet not having hot water and how to maintain it.

What to Do When Your Faucet Has No Hot Water

1. There may be a malfunction in the faucet itself, specifically with the valve on the hot water side. This can prevent hot water from flowing properly into the mixing valve.

2. Another possibility is that the inlet water filter is clogged, which can block the flow of hot water, resulting in no hot water coming from the faucet.

How to Maintain Your Faucet

1. First, hire a qualified technician for installation and repairs. Ensure that the faucet is not hit by hard objects during installation and avoid leaving adhesive, cement, or other substances on its surface to prevent damage to the finish. Make sure to clear any debris from the pipes before installing the faucet.

2. If the water pressure exceeds 0.02 MPa, remember to close the drain after use. This makes it easier to clean the screen cover and prevents debris from getting trapped.

3. Avoid rotating the faucet handle too forcefully. Turn it gently; even for standard faucets, don't apply excessive force when tightening screws. Do not use the handle as a support.

4. For proper cleaning, use flowing water to rinse the faucet, then wipe its surface with a soft cloth to dry it. Be aware that water can leave watermarks as it evaporates, so avoid scrubbing the surface too hard. Use a sponge or soft leather to polish the faucet, keeping it shiny and ensuring it looks good at all times.

In summary, the causes of a faucet having no hot water are generally limited to those mentioned above. Identifying the reason can significantly simplify the solution. We hope this information will be helpful to you.
