Tap mixes warm into cold water
My camper has a single handle kitchen faucet. When running cold water through it, it will mix warm water into the water streaming out of the faucet. Is that due to a defective faucet valve? Or co...

RV water heaters have a check valve that keeps hot water from flowing out their inlet, and this can fail. In that case, hot water can get drawn out of the inlet causing the temperature to alternate between hot and cold when just the cold is on.
Another possibility to check into - it's more likely to be the case if you have this experience with more than one faucet.
This might be the case.
My wife mentioned that the bathroom faucet also would run warm and cold.
And it is just as you state - it will alternate between hot and cold when just the cold is on.
So. . .I guess that I need to find the hot water heater inlet check valve?
