my house is 45 trs old and the pipes are becoming very poor.the hot water pressure is slowly becoming intolerable.the pipes are accessable under the house and i was told i could lightly tap all the connection (elbows ect)to loosen the sediment with the water running and posibly increase the pressure.
has anybody tried this or any other suggestions besides repiping .thanks bill

dont "tap" on the pipes...this will only dislodge more debris further clogging your system....sounds like your house needs to be re-piped. erik
