Have you checked the aerators at the sinks to see if they be clogged ?

Did you change it with the same pressure and flow as before ?....
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

If the aerators don't solve it you may have to take some of the fixtures apart (as if you're changing seals) and flush them out. I'm surprised how many little bits of plastic I still find in my system after decades of running water through it.

He's only mentioning the problem is with the hot water so something doesn't sound right. Are you sure this isn't happening with the cold water side as well?
