Immersion heater is working but no hot water coming through taps

[Lai]

Please can someone help. Plumber came to property and said that the immersion heater is working. We do not have any hot water coming through the taps. He said that he is unable to locate a thermostatic mixing valve in the property which needs to be repaired. Where is this located?

Standard cylinder , you may have a TMV somewhere but you may have a shower or mixer tap ( passing ) can you try another plumber?

 

[Lai]

Plumber could not locate TMV. He thinks it maybe in the floor. Is this normal?

 

[townfanjon]

Could be anywhere , IF there is one , as I say it could be one of the other things I mentioned.

Isolate mains cold water and then see if you have hot come through.

My guess would be a mixer shower somewhere. What showers do you have? Also what taps?
