If changing the temperature of the water in your tank doesn’t do the trick, then you might have a lose connection. Check all of the connections from the tank to the tap and make sure they are tight and secure.

Clean the aerator to remove any hard water deposits or debris

Turn off the hot water tank and run the water from your tap until it’s cool. Unscrew the aerator from the end of the spout and clean it by running water through it. Place the aerator on the spout and turn the tank back on.
