One day you may come across a problem where your cold-water tap splatters then there’s no water at all. It generally means there’s air trapped inside your hot water system. What you have to do is to remove the air by pumping it with main’s fed water. Clip at the tip to that, it’s a hose pipe with a connector at the end onto your hot water tap. And bear in mind you cannot use a cold water from your bathroom sink to flush out the hot water from the same sink because it’s not on a main’s pressure.

The cold water comes from a tank. So you need to put the other end of your hose pipe onto your kitchen tap. So you open the kitchen tap, the cold water in the kitchen tap, and then you open the hot water in your bathroom sink. And the pressure from the cold water in the kitchen sink should fight the air bubbles in your sink in the bathroom.

So quick handy tip Handymantips.co.uk.
