I just signed up to see if anyone can offer any suggstions with a problem I'm experiencing with my hot water. I've been a reader for a while but never had a reason to post anything until now.
A few days ago the water in one of my bathrooms stopped getting hot. Having investigated a bit, it's only in this room - everywhere else is fine. There is plenty of hot water. Furthermore, if I run both basins or one basin and the shower then the water comes out hot. If I turn off one thing, the remaining one goes tepid.
I isolated the cold supply to test and confirmed that the unwanted cold water is coming through the hot supply pipe.
It's an unvented system with a "Gledhill stainless lite" indirect 300L cylinder with a pumped secondary return.
Can anyone suggest what this might be? I'll probably need to get someone in but I would like to at least have an idea of what the problem is.
Thanks.
