We've had this problem before...you have to install a check valve (use a swing check and install it horizontally) in the recirc return line, so water cannot flow back through it and mix with the cold when you use the faucet.
To prevent stratification of the hot water molecules into the cooler water as heat goes to cold
Standard instillation of a washer identifies the valve s as hot on the left, cold water on the right. In any water instillation, the standards are hot on the left and cold on the right.
cold water tub facuet is corroded bye hard water builtup and needs to be replaced. Hot water is okay. Its the right one with the cold water coming out
Given the lack of clear markings for H and C on the washing machine, I can only think of trial and error to resolve the issue. For example, turn off the cold supply from the mains pipe, and attempt a 'cold wash'. If no activity ensues, then the connections are correct.
Obviously hooked up wrong, or the faucets are mismarked . Usually cold on the right, hot on the left.

Possible leak in the water recirculating system ... or ... the engine thermostat is now working correctly and needs replacement,.
If the water is coming from the main, it should not be dirty. If it comes from the cold water storage tank in the loft, maybe it needs to be cleaned or covered.
I am not a plumber, but am in the process of installing a water line myself...and all of the research I have done says the water line should be hooked up to the cold water.

Not all plumbing devices do; some have combined hot/cold taps. In either case, hot and cold water lines are separate, the hot water coming from a water heater. The simplest taps merely control each line, letting the user measure out how much of each they want.
Unless there is a recirculating pump the hot water has to come from the hot water heater. Depending on how far away it is from the faucet, it can take 15 to 30 seconds for the hot water to get there. Since there is nothing in the pipe to keep the water hot, it cools down between uses.
Odds are that the cold water lines to the faucet you are trying to use are shut off but the hot water lines coming from the water heater are not. That is why you have hot water but no cold water.
Yes, copper piping is usually recommended for both hot and cold water systems.
No, the cold water supplies the water heater also. No water coming in means no water at all.
Was put in Katrina workers way!backwards..deal with it!
