Hi All,
I have recently replaced the float valve in my cwst, because the old one was making too much noise, this solved the noise problem but now I am faced with the water going really slow after about 3-5 minutes of running it for the bath.
I have checked the cwst to see if it is going empty but this is not the cause. I am a bit puzzled as to why it would run dry.
my cwst is on the first floor and my bathroom is on the ground floor.
the only conclusion I can come up with is a blockage, there is little bits of dirt coming out, but why did it work before i changed the float valve and it works up to a point?
The water goes slow for about 30 seconds and then goes back to normal, this is happening twice when running a bath, so can become a right problem and isnt brilliant as I am a plumber and having this problem when people are visiting.
If it is a blockage, what can be done to clean the water (potable) pipes? apart from replacing.
