    Cold water coming out of hot tap on bath
    I have just changed the taps on my bath to a mixture tap with shower attachment the pressure on the hot tap is lower than the cold. Hence I think this is what is causing the problem. Are my right in thinking that if I put a 22mm check valve on the hot pipe it will resolve this problem
