Single Hot Water Tap Not Working

by reckoner » Fri Aug 26, 2022 3:40 pm

Hi,
Water has stopped flowing from our bath hot water tap. All other taps are working. When I turn the water mains off the flow stops for all cold taps, but still flows through all hot taps except the bath. Any help appreciated. Many thanks.

Hi reckoner,
Most likely an air lock in the pipe work feeding the hot tap. If you have access to a wet vac use this to suck on the hot tap - fully open. If not try linking the hot and cold taps and turning them both on - hot first.
Regards S
