Quick preface. Gravity fed system. Both used to be fine, now aren't.
Sink Tap
The tap on the sink is actually a high pressure one, and the hot water throughput was fairly bad. Went to swap it for a low pressure tap, new tails were a few mm short so have had to fit the old tap again until I can sort it. Iso's are fully open and now the throughput on the tap is pathetic. Hot is no more than a dribble and cold is a trickle. No kinks in the tails
Bath Hot Tap
This used to be fine, but now it spurts out at an angle as if there is something blocking the water. I've tried everything I can think of, including attaching the pressured shower pipe the tap but it doesn't seem to work. I haven't taken the taps off etc as I'd need to take the bath panel off and the previous owners have silicone'd the whole thing in place..
Does anyone have a suggestion on either of the above? It's been annoying me for quite a while now..
