Air lock from cold water storage tank

View the thread, titled "Air lock from cold water storage tank" which is posted in Air Sourced Heat Pumps Advice Forum on UK Plumbers Forums.

Having problems with a recurring air lock in the cold water system which is tank fed. Every couple of months it dribbles out very slowly hot water. Not full flow but just a dribble. I use a wet vac to suck the air out every couple of months but it re occurs.

Is it possible it’s due to a faulty pump or cylinder thermostat. They are the first two that spring to mind but the only concern I have is it dribbles out the cold tap instead of full flow as if the vent was discharging in the tank.
