Hi, we've got an odd problem with our pressurised system.

Kitchen sink and one bathroom basin have next to no pressure/flow on hot and cold, yet shower in the bathroom is fine. Pressure in basin taps in bathroom next to the first one are fine as is a basin downstairs (both these rooms are at an earlier point in the system).

Could there be a blockage, or what other reasons could there be for this?

Thanks.

Am i right to believe your on a system boiler not a combi. Is the cold water in the kitchen on mains pressure? or are they all indirect from the cold water storage?? could possibly be an airlock. is the water storage full??
 
How are the taps connected - if flexihose, this may be kinked or twisted.

There are flexi-connectors, and they may be kinked, but I would be surprised if they both got kinked so as to reduce the pressure dramatically at the same time.

If there's an airlock, how to test and remedy?
