    Any plummers in the house???

    Have a problem with the cold water in my main upstairs bathroom. When running a bath the cold water flow is very slow. It's seems to be getting slower everyday and is just about only a trickle at the moment.. It'll probably stop altogether in a couple of days..
    It only appears to be happening with the main bath cold tap... I think all other taps are ok....

    A mate has sugested that there may be an airlock or something.

    Anyone have any ideas how to sort this?

    Get a long hose.

    Attach it to the kitchen cold tap and the other end to the bathroom cold tap.

    Make sure there is someone at either end to make sure it doesnt spray everywhere.

    Turn on the kitchen cold tap for about 30 seconds and then turn off both taps, kitchen first.

    Run the bathroom tap and see if its any better.

    If not try again.
