Unvented cylinder reduced flow rate
alL hot outlets, balanced cold ok. Can only think tank connection at cold feed, possibly rust deposits from the old combination valve?(valve was rusty as hell its old and bulky) my first diagnosis of filter was wrong so don't want to start draining tank etc to find out I'm wrong again- GQuigley67

Be mindful to keep only one open end as you change the valve, or swap really quick if possible.- GQuigley67
