Hello,
I have a Baxi Combi Instant 80HE boiler, which is causing me no end of bother. Earlier today I had the h.w. diaphragm replaced by a professional, as the hot water was not working when the taps were turned on. This problem has now been fixed and the hot water is again flowing.
However, the flow is now so low that our "power shower" is now little more than a dribble and this was never the case beforehand. I didn't realise this when the engineer was in the house and only realised when my partner went for a shower. Additionally, I have now noticed that all of the hot water taps are flowing much less powerfully.
The general water pressure appears to be fine, as the cold taps are still working at full pace.
What could have caused the drop in hot water tap pressure? And how can I fix it? Is it something really simple that I am unaware of or something more sinister? The pressure reading on the boiler itself is fine but I don't know to what extent this is connected to the 'power' of the hot water coming out of the taps.
Any help would be much appreciated!
