A farting tap

Hi everyone,

A very strange thing has happened today,

This morning I had my shower like usual (I use the bath tap for the shower I guess this is called a mixer tap?)

For some strange reason the pressure was really low, to be honest it would've been faster for me to wash with a jug.

I then looked on the Internet at what a sudden drop in pressure might be. Quite a lot of the searches came up with an air bubble that was trapped in the pipes.

I then followed the instructions of turning on all faucets hot and cold around the house for 15 minutes and then flushing both toilets a couple of times. I then turned all of the taps off.

I just went to put on my Bath tap on hot water and it made a racket spitting out water intermittently. It sounded like the tap was farting out water.

However I have just turned on my cold tap and there is just a small trickle? This is the same for the sink in my bathroom as well - hot works fine but there is no cold. In the kitchen both are fine.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated otherwise I'll have to go back to a jug for washing

I believe it is a tank because I have to pre-heat the water in the morning

 

Shall I run the hot water from the tap and hold onto it and then open up the cold tap? Just seen a tutorial on YouTube

 

ok I will move some stuff and have a look but it is a bit odd that the kitchen Cold tap works fine and the two cold taps in the downstairs bathroom do not ?

Hi everyone all fixed now I went to the upstairs bathroom tap, blasting some water up by blocking the end
