Hi - we've had a magaflow fitted for the past 2 years without no issues. Over the past few days we have noticed that the pressure in the showers seem to be lower than normal, not massively lower but noticeable.

I've checked for leaks, none found. I also checked the overflow and it's dry. The incoming water pressure to the house seems fine but then I probably wouldn't notice like I would in the shower.

Another area where it's noticeable is when running the bath tap. The hot water shoots out with a force for about 2 seconds and then immediately dies back to a lower pressure. Before this would last a good 20-30 seconds of force (if not longer). If I turn on the cold, the mixer tap doesn't deliver more water but seems to further throttle back the hot.

If there anything I can do or check or do I need to call out a plumber?

Thanks, Nick
 
Recharge the air bubble in the cylinder. Have a look at the instruction label on the cylinder it will explain how to do it.
