When i turn the single handle the water is cold until the hot water heater kicks in. Once the water turns hot, it stays hot. Even at the coldest setting, the water comes out hot. This problem occurs at both of my showers which are back-to-back. It occurs at NO other locations in the house. All other faucets have hot and cold water.
The plumbers screwed up when they installed your showers. There are two connections on each shower. one for hot and one for cold. they connected the two hot water lines together with a T fitting and then ran a line to the main hot water line and tied it in. Then they connected the two cold water fittings with a T and ran that line to the main hot water line and tied it in there instead of into a cold water line like they were suppose to. This is the only possible logical solution to this problem. They tied your cold water connections to both showers into a hot water line instead of a cold water line.

I'm guessing they were installed in 2006 which is when the building was built. I just bought the unit which was a foreclosure so I am not positive. I'm guessing that if the former owner took the faucets that he wouldn't have replaced them. So I think they were installed in 2006
Were these faucets just installed?
I have the same problem now but it was working properly earlier. I think it is perrin and rowe part. I fear that it is clogged into the faucets. If so, how to clean it?
