My hot water bath tap's pressure has gradually reduced over the years. It now takes 15 minutes to run a both. I'd like to clean the hot water feeder pipe of any gunge in the hope of increasing the pressure again.
I can switch off the hot water supply and have replaced the hot water tap no problem.
With the tap physically removed, there is a direct link with the pipe going down. I'm thinking it would be easy enough to 'push through' some sort of cleaning implement, down the pipe, through the turns, capturing the debris. Then, I pull it out carefully, with hopefully a mass of residue collected.
Does this sound like a plan?
Where would I get such a cleaning implement?
