We had a new bath fitted about a month ago , all has been fine until the last few days where the pressure from the hot tap has slowed down considerably taking 15 - 20 mins to fill the bath.The cold tap is still flowing well & all other hot taps within the house are running fine.

Could this be a problem with the washer ?

There may be debris in the pipe which gets pushed up as far as the washer by the force of the water; partially blocking the flow. Try taking the body out of the tap and give it a burst of water by opening the isolation valve on the pipe. If you have no isolation valve close by then you will have to get someone else to open the other means of isolation, ie:Stop Valve.

PS; If you do have an iso' valve on the pipe it's possible some debris could be blocking that.

Try not to get WET!! And let us know how you get on! :idea:
