That's right, I do have a separate white expansion vessel. I've removed the aerators from the taps for the time being to allow the grit to come out. Some of it is very powdery and some of it can be snapped. I'm not sure if it is plastic or whether it's a build up of something

Yeah it hasn't been serviced. I've only ever had my boiler serviced. I was speaking to my neighbours today and two of them have not had theirs serviced and did not know they needed too. I was gonna give them a call anyhow and find out what they say

Where would I find that, I've had the bath panel off and can't see anything.

Hi All, I am new here and really hoping for some advice or guidance. I have an unvented system in the house, so a boiler downstairs and a massive tank in my airing cupboard upstairs. Over the last few weeks, the hot water flowing from the bath mixer tap has started to slow down to a trickle...
