Marc Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 Click to Enlarge 48.13 KB Only one faucet in the house did this on the hot water side. An adjacent (his/her lavs) faucet of identical model didn't do it. Would this be because the screen on the spigot was missing or something? Not a problem, just a curiosity. Client asked. Marc
John Kogel Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 Tell them not to drink hot water from the tap, Marc. [] Maybe there was air trapped in that line from a repair and it hadn't been used much before the inspection.
Bill Kibbel Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 Air is easily dissolved into pressurized water and into hot water. For one or more reasons, that faucet allows the rapid release of the air (like carbonation) when the pressure is released. The most common reason would be the aerator is just a bit different than the other faucet - could be debris in the screen.
