When we turn our water on,it sprays out like there's air in the water lines. Then the water, without warning, will go from hot to cold and vice versa. It's terrible when you're trying to take a shower! It does this in every place we have water, toilet, faucets, washing machine, etc. Any advice would be appreciated!

do you have a well or are you on city water?

We have a well.

Air is somehow entering the system between the well pump and your pressure tank. Where it is entering is what you or a professional will need to determine.

The hot/cold problem is likely linked to a bad pressure tank, the air getting into the system is either the pump sucking air from a dry well, or you have a break in the line somewhere. It is possible that if you are sucking air from a dry well that you aren't getting enough water to fill the pressure tank at all while the is being used. If it was just a hole in the pipe I would expect the pressure during pumping to be steady, but lower than average flow as part of the water would be running out.

Thank you so much, I'll call someone and have it checked out.

Any "break" in the line, that let air INTO the piping, would have to be on a suction line, which would only happen with a shallow well jet pump.
