Hi All,

Bailey Ranger with carver cascade water heater.

Cold supply runs fine through both taps but hot water trickles through
both taps.

I've drained down the system twice and refilled with taps open to allow air
through when filling water heater and have tried blowing back through the
shower tap in washroom to release any air locks but to no avail.

Any suggestions from anyone please?

Thanks,

David

There could be a partial blockage in the pipework leading to the heater, or 
worse case, the heater could be furring or scaling up.( you could try 
bypassing it to see)
Is it slow on every tap? if it's just one it may be in the tap it'self try 
unsrewing the black nozzle on the end of the tap and trying.
good luck

Ta for the response - we've been away having stripped everything down first.

Still no improvement and I think its probably related to the pressurised
water heater.  More playing may eventually get it sorted.
