Water system

[rmichaud6489]

I am a newbie at this so please be patient. Lol. I hooked up my 19' Flying Clout to city water. The water pressure for the cold water coming out of all the faucets is just about right. The pressure for the hot water is low. What gives?

Is your water heater bypass valve turned in the right direction?

Not quite sure what you mean. Should it be open or closed?

It will take a few minutes for the hot water tank to fill, when pressure should improve.

The bypass valve should be closed for winterizing to keep antifreeze out of the water heater and open during the summer so the water heater has water. If you don't use antifreeze in the fresh water system, the water heater bypass is not really necessary.
