This was last serviced in November last year, so you would think they would clean the fan out as part of that that blows the hot air onto the pipe???
They came back and cleaned it out, and all is now well.
I was looking into this this much too deeply.
Thanks everyone!!
Hello
In one go, I get 2 min of hot water before it goes cold and will not give out how water again for about 5 min. Good for washing up and er the washing machine only. :lol:
I've run some cleaning solution though it twice and the water seems clear enough. The heating works fine...
To increase the flow rate the either
1. Use bigger pipes, and let gravity do the work
or
2. Install a pump
If it was OK before, I suspect some muck/dirt from your hot water sytem is now clogging up the tap or valve somewhere causing the reduced flow rate.
It is also possible that...

I do not wish to sound patronising, You should never compromise where is comes to your families...
"Single feed indirect" is what they call it. Primatic is just a trade name for this sytem type.
To be quite honist, I would seriously condsider a new system long term.
Get it upgraded to a new indirect system, and make room in the loft for a F+E cistern
Primatics can get into trouble...
