    I recently had a new Baxi Combi Boiler installed.
    My water is Direct Mains.
    The problem is when I turn on the hot tap in the kitchen all I get is a drizzle of water. The cold tap is OK! as as us the shower.
    This happens even when all the appliances are off.
    Can anyone advise me please?? :)

    If it's only one tap it could be an airlock. To clear if it's a mixer tap for hot and cold water turn on the hot tap block the tap with your hand then turn on the cold tap to send water into the hot water pipe. That should clear the airlock.

    Your tip will work with tank fed hot water but this is mains fed so it's more likely to be a tap issue.
