Possible airlock if you drained down the water. Did you use flexi-tap connectors for the new taps? If so they could be kinked.0

Is the isolator fully opened?Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.0

look at the size of the hole in a 22mm flexi, link here, then you will know why the flow isn't very good, if you change the iso to a full bore one, link here, it might make it better,
plus the flexi's must be wras approved for hot & cold suppliesI'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.
You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.0 -
