I have no hot water coming through my dual handle Kohler faucet. The cold water is also a little slow.?

This faucet is only 4yrs old and the plumbing is all new. The valves are all open and no frozen pipes. This is a compression type faucet and the washer does not look worn. Any insight as to what could be wrong?|||1,. Start at the beginning


2. Go to your hot water heater-Is the water hot?


3. If the water is hot, go to the kitchen and turn off the cold and hot water and take the Kohler faucet apart and check for blocks. It must/should work.|||Where do you live? The thing to check are all the other faucets in the house. Does the shower and tub run like it should or is it slow too? Does the toilet fill up as fast as it should? How cold is the water in the toilet tank? Open the doors on the vanity or under sink and allow the warm room air to circulate into the space. Feel the pipes, are they real cold? If so maybe turn a hairdryer on them for a while.


At night leave the cabinet doors open.
