Hoping for a solution to this problem I have:

My hot water has started to flow very slowly from all the taps in the house.
The problem is worse upstairs where if I run the bath tap the other tap on the bathroom sink does not run at all.....yet when I turn the bath tap off a slow flow resumes from the sink :confused:
Downstairs taps do run in tandem but not with any enthusiasm.

I have tried to run the system through but this has not improved matters.

Any advice on this matter will be greatly appreciated..... thanks in anticipation.

it's a Glow Worm Energy saver... was fitted with the house when new 10 years ago... no problems (until now?)
 
Is this a combi boiler or do you have a cylinder in an airing cupboard as there was more than one model of that boiler ?
