Pressure is the same whether hot or cold.
If shut off the hot water valve then you take off your supply line from your hot water valve to your faucet and then turn your hot water valve on slowly (with of course a bucket or something to collect the water under it) and if you can see you have water pressure and flow then most likely the problem would be in your faucet on the hot side. If you have no pressure or flow when you turn the hot valve on then it could be debris plugging your hot water pipe or your hot water service valve (angle stop, straight stop) which older galvanized pipes are known to do so. To fix the problem you would need to find out where the problem is then either fix or replace the faucet or replace the angle/straight stop or try back flushing the hot water pipe and or replace the pipe with pex or copper pipe.
Hot water does exert pressure, but the main thing is that it creates steam if hot enough, and that is often used to run machines that require pressure.
You may have a restriction in your hot water heater exit pipes. There may be corrosion. How old is the house and how old is the hot water heater? What type of pipe is there going out of the hot water heater? You need to know this to fix the problem yourself without hiring a plumber.
My guess is that the hot water heater is installed downstream from a pressure reducer to limit the maximum water pressure that the water heater is exposed to.
Run a new cold supply line from the source. This will drain less pressure from the the cold shower line.
It is a senior bat and is to hot for asa.
the water pressure of the sunlight zone is very hot....
You can try following the water lines back to the water heater to make sure there is not a valve closed holding the water back that may have been forgotten after the repair. This being the case, I would be worried that the repair was not check to see if it was done correctly.If you have pressure on the hot water at other faucets in the home, then I would think this could be the problem. Need more help contact me through my board and I will try to help.
in Lower pressure water does not have to get as hot to boil
