I just moved into a complete remodel, and noticed the hot/cold lines to my washer seemed to be switched. The cold hose was hot, and the hot cold after running a cycle. I switched the hoses on the washer, but that didn't fix it and now I think it was right the first time. Several days after this, I noticed our Navien NPE240A was cycling every 5 min. Seemed like a leak, so I turned off the water main, waited a few min, then back on again. I could hear & see (from an access panel) water spurting out of a line under the house. Not entirely sure it's the laundry, but it's in that vicinity but also where the lines go back to the water heater & near a bathroom. We are on city water, not softened.
We have a recirculation pump that prior to this, would cycle every 30 min or so. No issues with hot or cold at the taps, even after switching washer hoses. Could switching the hoses have caused a leak? Or are they unrelated? The contractor's plumber is coming to look at it, but I'm now concerned about the system. Thanks.
