Lower Temp From Bath Tap.

[MarkeR]

Bit of a strange situation here.
I have turned my water temp up to max on my boiler, the water temp from the taps in the house all run at the same temp apart from the bath tap.
As a test I put the water to maximum, which would actually scold you if you left your hand under for too long, the bath tap runs comfortably hot.
Is there such a thing as not enough water pressure release fromn the tap to initiate the hot water from the boiler?
I cannot think of any reason why the temps would be so different.

Thanks

New bathroom fitted recently.

Trying to get hold of the fitter, but as per they are slightly tardy in returning calls. I still havent paid in full so I have that ging for me.

If there is a valve fitted, can that be removed? I understand why it is there, but I would like my own choice of water temp!

Thanks

If you are on a combi system and the tap is a high flow tap it may be that the boiler can not heat it to the higher temperature. Try running it slower and seeing if it gets hotter, that will atleast show that this is the problem.

Actually tried this before i saw your post, and this is exactly what is happening. Turned the flow down to around 1/3 and the water is at the correct temp..

Thanks guys
