Electric water heater is fairly new and both bathrooms have nice hot water, but kitchen faucet and dishwasher won’t even get hot enough to wash dishes. It’s probably around 100 degrees. Pressure is OK, though not great. It’s a single lever style faucet, installed in April this year when we bought the house.

House is built on a slab with all plumbing running through concrete, but since a bathroom on the same side of the house as the kitchen has good hot water, it probably isn’t the long trip from the heater that’s cooling the water down. (it’s maybe 30′)

thanks for any and all suggestions. I hate to think I need to jackhammer these floors to solve the problem!
