No water from bathroom sink hot tap

by patrick » Thu Jan 31, 2008 8:02 am

I recently drained and refilled the CH system. Initially I was getting no hot water which I put down to an airlock. This has cleared and hot water resumed but I have no water coming from the hot tap in the bathroom sink. The shower/bath and kitchen sink are all working and hot. No water at all from the bathroom sink.
Any ideas how I can remedy this? I am assuming it's linked because it happened at the same time - is this wrong?
Thanks

could again be airlocked.

Get a cutting of hose about 2ft long, open the hot and cold tap - hold the hose over both so that the cold water flows into the hot tap - this will back fill the hot water pipes and clear the airlock.

Hope this helps
