Had my garage positioned gas water heater replaced today. Well there's no hot water in two bathrooms - one downstairs and upstairs. The master bathroom (upstairs) is ok both hot and cold from all water faucets, shower and Jacuzzi.
In the other bath room upstairs there's no hot water from faucet but bath tub has both. As for the bathroom downstairs there's no hot water there at all.
The plumber told me that sediments are pro'ly blocking the hot lines to the two bathrooms. I reasoned that there should be no sediments from the new water heater. Before there was always water normally until we had lost pressure on the hot lines.
He also suggested the moen cartridges will need to be replaced in all bathrooms. Plumber said that 50/50 the moens fail after a new water heater installation. Is that always the case? That they have a lifetime warranty and it's a matter of calling and requesting for them
The replacements was covered by a home warranty. Should the moen cartridges be covered in the same claim?
What can I do to fix the hot lines myself?
