Hi,
Last year I had a B&Q bathroom suite fitted in my bathroom. Both the sink (Treviso Basin Mixer) and the bath (Treviso Bath Filler) hot water taps keep stopping when they are not turned on full, which is very annoying. I have a combi boiler supplying these but it also supplies the kitchen tap which has never done this. Can anyone suggest whether this is caused by cheap taps or whether the boiler needs adjusted some how?

Thanks, Iain.
 
If all other hot water taps are working correctly, it will defo be the taps you bought from b&q
 
the insides are getting warm and something is expanding inside the taps to reduce the flow.
 
Yeah its those b&q taps,no doubt about it,i had it before,thought it was the tmv before the taps strangling them,turns out it was the taps.

Thanks for replying guys. Do you think it could it be rubber washers causing this then? If so I could hopefully swap them out. Iain
 
Buy a box of Bristan tap Reviver kit and see weather that cures the problem, dead easy to fit.
