    No hot water from shower head, but there is hot water from bath and basin
    It would be grateful if someone can help with this problem.

    There is no hot water from the shower head but there is hot water for bath and basin. This is a mix tap for shower and bath.

    I have checked the boiler and it works fine.

    The situation is that there will be hot water coming from shower head if I keep cold water tap both running at basin and bath. So I think it might not be enough water pressure for hot water to shower.

    Is it because of no enough water pressure for hot water to shower?

    I will hope it is a small problem to sort out by myself.

    Many thanks!

    Hi Iris

    More than likely, you have a mixing spool that has become defective here... certainly not a pressure issue... ;)

    How many single lever taps do you have?

    Let me know, OK?
