Does anyone know how to adjust the hot water stops so that I get it hotter?

I had the same problem. I googled it and got a video that demonstrates how to do it. (It's very hard to describe without a video/photo.)

Weird. Is the hot water valve all the way open after installation? Do you have good pressure with cold water? If not is something under the sink pinching the hose? Never heard of anything like this.

I already have hot and cold water and it can be mixed.I don't think the panel itself can warm it up.

There is an adjustable plastic ring inside the faucet assembly that you can turn to let more hot water in than cold water. If you have "scald protection", this adjustment overrides that setting. It should be explained in the instruction sheet. But be careful. Too much and someone could get burned from TOO much hot water.

This rough-in valve body doesn't regulate. The Delta faucet cartridge you put in it does. The cartridge will comes preset at an anti-scald level. You can adjust the action to allow more hot water, up to the temp of your water heater. Instruction on how to make this adjustment comes with faucet cartridges. http://www.deltafaucet.com/media/MandI/68881%20Rev%20E.pdf It's explained here in adjusting rotational limit stop.

The water doesnt ever get hot unless I add it hot. Maybe mine doesnt work like it is supposed to, but it has never heated the water.

there is no water flow adjustment, it basically streams water until hot water is detected and almost cuts the water flow completely down to hardly anything, until you pull the lever and then you get full pressure for the remainder of your shower

Sounds like your filter may be misaligned. Try taking it out and reinstalling it again. Never use hot water as that will damage your filter.

The handle to turn water on and off is on the side, not in the center like others. My cold water is in the back and hot to the front. Just swap the hose under the sink.

I will ask my Dad. I think he used hot water and worked at it a bit. But, he is very pleased with the results. I will ask him and get back to you.

For Hot water, just use the lever to set to the desired temperature, and it will stay there until you change it.

I'm guessing that you are starting with really cold water. The heater can only raise the temperature up just so much - 40-50 degrees, I don't remember.The trick is to discharge the heated water into your source bucket which heats it up and pretty quick you'll have water coming out of the discharge end way hotter than you'd want to shower in.Hope this helps.

mine doesnt have an ''on-off'' switch,, check the batteries and make sure they are in the right position,,after that the 3 control knobs I played with them a little in the beggining,, but that was mostly to get the hotest water I could,, good luck

Yes you can adjust the temperature and how much water is flowing while the faucet is on. You need to use the handle to do this.

I have not installed mine yet but If your water was hotter with the old valve there is likely an adjustment to the mixing valve that will allow more hot water through. I only know this because I watched my plumber friend adjust the mixing valve while holding a thermometer under the water stream. There is a temp you should not exceed to avoid accidental scalding. ie children playing with the faucet. I recommend checking instruction regarding adjustment of the mixing valve.

we had to adjust ours as well...make sure the stream area is clean...nothing blocking it, good luck!
