    No hot water at kitchen sink

    Newbie here. I have hot water flowing in the bathroom almost immediately, but have run at least 3, maybe 4 gallons through the kitchen sink and no hot water is flowing. I searched old posts and the owner’s manual to see if that would shed some light, but didn’t find anything. Any help would be appreciated.

    Have you checked your outdoor sprayer valves to ensure they are off?

    No water is coming out of either of them. Can you explain why that would impact the hot water not going to the kitchen when I still get hot water in the bathroom?? I’m trying to learn.

    Ahh..no flow, I thought you meant it was cold water coming out.

    If you leave the outdoor sprayer valves open, it will essentially recirculate the hot water and it doesnt make it to the rest of the trailer.

    For your no flow problem, it might be helpful to provide more details. Are you on city water or using the water pump from the tank? Is the only faucet that doesnt work the kitchen, have you checked the shower and the outdoor sprayer/kitchen if you have one?

    If you have hot water in the bath room but not in the kitchen then I can only think of a couple things that could be wrong.

    This is a new trailer, have you ever had hot water in the kitchen?

    Check your nautilus panel and make sure all the levers are in the correct position for city water or dry camp whichever you are currently doing.

    I must ask the obvious. Are you turning the faucet to the correct position for hot water in the kitchen? If you turn it to cold and get hot then the water lines to the faucet under the sink are probably reversed.

    There could be a problem with the faucet and it is not delivering hot water but not likley.

    If you have never had hot water in the kitchen then the problem might be in the way the plumbing was put together. There could be a problem with the Nautilus system or the person putting the trailer together could have connected water lines wrong. Unless you were into tearing apart your trailer and doing major problem solving then this would be a dealer fix.

    Your signature says it is a 2020 so sounds like a dealer fix.

    .
    Not so rare. The position that the single lever faucet on our kitchen sink is backwards. I always had trouble when turning on the hot or cold water there, because it felt odd to me. But my husband said it was correct. He even used a sharpie to mark which way the lever needed to be for hot/cold water.

    Then, when we had to have our propane line checked for damage following our spring bracket holder breaking, the technician said "Did you know your hot/cold is reversed in the kitchen sink?" I punched my husband's arm and said "SEE?????"

    Of course, his excuse is he's a lefty.
