I can't figure out what's wrong here, can anyone weigh in?
The tap runs on super low pressure when turned to hot, but normal on cold. It was normal for both temps and everything in between up until recently.
Can't figure out what's up.
No blockage in tap as cold comes from same place.
No blockage at tank as other taps are fine.
Stopcock is open.
Are there user serviceables in there like o-rings that go bad, or should I just buy a new fitting? Fuck it if I do

maybe check and see if your water heater has an expansion tank or PSI regulator on it?

Prime culprits are the faucet itself (open it up, check seals, blockages, etc) or the hot water feed line/feed valve. The feed will be under the sink and should have a valve to turn it off, hot will be on the left if it was installed correctly. That will let you check the line. Next culprit is the valve itself, which may not be opening fully. It's not hard to replace, but will require turning off your master water supply for a while. Final culprit is the faucet itself, which will be the hardest to fix because you'll have to break it down and check all the seals.

Thanks, pretty sure it's the faucet itself. Might just replace it and tear this one down for spares

For the record, you can easily check by disconnecting and running it into a bucket. If it comes out strong from there, then you need a new faucet.

How are other hot water taps in your house behaving? The same? It's the hot water tank or plumbing. The rest OK? Its that tap*.
*Make sure some dickhead didn't fiddle with the shut-off valve under the sink first.

Other hot taps are ok, I'll disassemble this one thanks lads.
Probably gonna let this thread die now, unless I get to it soon
