At first the cold water tap in the kitchen turned without opening the valve. I evaluated that the thread had gone, and with due care prized open the plastic cover, undid the screw and found the offending threadbare attachment.
Under my sink in the cupboard is a tap i understood to be the cold water shut off valve. I shut the water off. I checked in the bathroom that the coldwater was off and it was. I then opened the cold water valve just to check that the water would return..It did not! I assumed I had an airlock and went about searching these pages for solutions.
At this point all the hot water in all my taps worked perfectly. After opening and closing the cold water supply tap about 10 times I now have no hot water or cold water, my toilet system is also non functioning...i claim the prize for most idiotic undertaking of a job i am hopelessly underskilled to carry out but does anyone know what it is that i've done and how to reverse it? any comments greatly appreciated
