Hi all I currently have something similar to these: http://www.screwfix.com/p/swirl-edwardian-deck-mounted-bath-shower-mixer-tap/13762While the shower unit is no good as a shower, it's handy for cleaning the bath out, cleaning car parts and rinsing my hair. Anyway, when trying to run a bath, it takes about an hour and I've put up with this for over a year now and it's really starting to pee me off The cold water just dribbles out and the hot water isn't much better, although more of the hot than the cold, which means I have to turn the hot tap right down so that dribbles out too, so my bath isn't scalding hot My bath panel is a pain to get off and so is changing the taps, so am wondering if anyone knows what could be inside these taps that's possibly failed? I know there will be washers, etc inside, but could it be something restricting the flow? If I have to take the bath panel off, then I'm changing the taps back to my originals if I can find them as this mixer unit thing is getting on my nerves. It's one of a few things to get sorted this year that's been bugging me for a while. Cheers

I don't think there are any service valves under the taps from what I remember. The shower part of it just dribbles out too Doesn't matter if I switch to bath or shower mode, its the same. The water is good in my area, so no limescale problems

We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
