It's probably the water filter. Tiffin filters the cold water but not the hot. Unscrew the filter housing and remove the element. If the water pressure comes back up you had a plugged filter and you should replace it. I use a Hydrolife C2063 bacteriostatic element from RVupgrades.com in mine. It does a better job of filtration but also passes more water volume than the OEM filter that Tiffin uses.

Cruser: Thank you. My on board filter (tiffin factory) was apparently plugged as when I removed it my pressure is great. I have a Hydro Life filter with the c-2063 filter right after my water source and just before my water softner. Possibly I dont need the second one on coach. When I dry camp I usually fill my tank through this filter before turning off outside source. (dry camp usually not more than 4 days at a time) What do you think? Thanks again Bob

I just use the C2063 element in the original factory canister.

Thank you Mark for all your help. My wife is very happy she can wash her hair now and be able to rinse it. Thanks again. Bob
