He! No water out of hot taps!!

[kk87]

Got up this morning and none of the hot taps have any water coming through them, the cold taps are all fine as is the heating.
Does this mean that the pipe is frozen?

Thank you
K

Tell us what system/boiler you have, may be a start

 

[TicklyT]

what sort of hot water system do you have?

Combi boiler? (make and model of boiler?)

Traditional vented gravity system (tanks in loft and hot water cylinder)?

Unvented system?

For a gravity system, frozen pipework in the loft, or the float valve in the cold storage cistern is certainly a possibility this weather.

For a start - any ice in the cold storage cistern?
Any water in the cistern?

I have a baxi duo tec combi boiler situated in my kitchen about 1 mtr away from the sink. As the first post I also have no running water from my hot tap. I'm inclined to think the pipe is frozen and hopefully a slow gradual thaw will put it right (everything crossed). Could this be the case or is there also a pump that would cause this problem. If so how will I know the difference or is it time to go even further into overdraft and pay someone to tell me

Can you verify that you have a cold water supply to the boiler no valves turned off on the boiler,etc;

If no one has touched it you have a frozen cold supply to the boiler open a hot tap and go along the cold supply to the boiler with a hair dryer look for where it is getting a cold draught onto it and then put some form of insulation around it
