Immersion Heater Problem, Not Filling Up As It Should

[Deanoliv]

Hi, I was wondering anyone could help me. I am having issues with my hot water system, my immersion heater does not seem to be filling up very quickly, literally just sounds like drips.

This has been the case ever since I changed my main water stopcock downstairs, unsure if this is related?? I tried connected cold and hot water taps to clear a possible airlock but still not joy. The taps all have good pressure when the immersion tank is full.

Does anyone have any ideas? thanks Dean

Is that little silver valve in the top right hand corner of the photo open?

Welcome to the forum Deanoliv

You should be able to work this one out easier yourself
i.e. If water is ok before it goes into the tank, your ballvave is faulty. Fit a new one.
Otherwise you haven't opened the stopcock fully
