Hi all
I don't use the forums much so please excuse any indiscretions.i am after some advice on the hot water system in our Bailey Pegasus , it heats the water up fine ( lovely and hot) but the flow rate out of the tap is barely a trickle .The cold taps all work fine so I don't think that it is a problem with the external pump. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas I would be grateful.

I can't recall if there's a seperate non-return valve on the outlet of the water heater in this van; if there is, it may be sticking causing the restriction.
Also, is the problem with all taps or just one? Less likely, but there's a screw on aerator on the outlet of the main taps which could be partially blocked.

Hi Paul
Problems with all taps and shower (water dosent even reach shower head) I did wonder if the hot water tank could need descaling or if there is a separate pump to the hot water tank which could be dying
