If you run a glass of hot water it will look cloudy because of very tiny bubbles resulting from dissolved air in the water. As the glass stands undisturbed the cloudiness will begin to clear from the bottom as the bubbles rise to the top and burst. After a couple of minutes the water will be as clear as the cold water. If this does happen there is nothing you can do about it. It's determined by the laws of physics. On the other hand, if it doesn't clear as described then you have a problem.
Air dissolves more easily in hot water and also in water under pressure. Combine the two and you can get a lot of dissolved air. After the pressure is relieved and the water cools a little the dissolved air comes out of solution in the form of tiny bubbles. Here's a Carnac for you. Answer Don Hoe. Contents of envelope.
