No. No hot water in kitchen or upstairs in bathroom.

do you have a combi?

 

[Kimbo Bubs]

Yeh its a combi but we have no radiators (gas fires still).
Not so long ago tap would b slightly open and we got hot water, then we would have to open hot tap fully before we got hot water, now we dont get any...

I think you need to GSR Kimbo as work will involve removing the casing and having a peek - if you post on " I need a gas engineer" thread you are sure to get a good bunch that can diagnose and fix this; really sorry but cant offer anymore than that

if its a vailant combi you have left one side of the filling loop open

 

[Kimbo Bubs]

Believe it could be the regulator valve?

Is it a vailant?

I believe you're out of your depth. Get a GSR in and sleep well afterwards.
