I think before I plunk down any amount of $$ I'm going to confirm that the mixing valve is indeed NOT the source of the problem.

Thanks to everybody who as chimed in here.

BTW-As far as usage goes, it is just me in the house full-time right now, but I plan on having visitors and maybe even a "special someone" some day.
Cate;

I think that is a very wise choice to check the mixing valve before going any further. Normally with hard water, this is the first thing that goes. It's inexpensive and very easy to replace and would certainly be my first thing to look at.

Good Luck!
