Thanks buddy.. I left my taps open for a hour. Lol. Then looked for something about air in your pipes. This gentleman came up. He fixed my problem. Much appreciated pal. Thanks.
Good stuff!
This man saved me from calling someone out had an air lock after turning the water off. Spent a good couple of hours trying to sort it and fretting until I came across this video!!!
Done exactly what he said to do BANG 💥
HOT WATER IS BACK ON. THANK YOU !!!!!!
Thank you so much, i was able to fix the air lock by myself with your help.
I was worried about a big plumbing bill, and then after seeing other vids worried that i did not have a double tap anyway in the house.
I was able to get the hot water going when i got home from work and before my husband go home from work.
My 6yr daughter is very impressed with mummy's handyman work.
Thank you xox
+Firebug454 No problem. Al.
Thanks! My mum's taps got an airlock after a repair in the main supply up the road. She had the last tap setup in her bathroom, so I watched the whole video. Now I'll be able to clear any one of these in the future. You the man!
No problem
Thank you so much!! This saved me from making a call out. With a bit of time and patience I was able to sort the problem by following your advice 🤩
No problem Nicola.
I could listen to this guy all day. So helpful and love the way he talks.
Thanks, P story.
You my friend are a genius! Not had hot water in kitchen for ages now. Had to boil kettles/fill basins from bathroom tap to do dishes. 2 secs of watching this and my tap is working! Thank you so much x
Glad I could help!
Give this man a flipping medal!

Thank you so so much you are a gem keep up the great work. Thanks
No problem Kieran.
After replacing the motor on the valve and all that hassle didn't cure the problem. Checked your other videos and in 10 seconds it was sorted out. Hand on mixer tap and blast cold water up. Ridiculously easy. Thank you!!
+Jose Luna No problem pleased you sorted it ok. This is the type of secrets plumbers hate me for.
Many thanks. Was on the point of calling an expensive plumber when I checked this out. It worked a treat but it took more than one attempt to clear the problem completely. I also used a bulky cloth over the tap instead of my hand to prevent the water spraying about a bit. Thanks again.
No problem Sandy.
We thought we had a frozen pipe, but then it became apparent it might be an airlock. Following this advice I fixed an airlock in the hot and the cold water. Absolutely fantastic. Many thanks!
Nice work!
Thanks for your most helpful video. Just cleared my cold water pipe and water flowing as before.
You have saved me £s and the hassle of calling a plumber on a Sunday.
No problem.
I was not convinced that airlock can be fixed this easily but I was able to fix it in seconds after watching your video. This not the first time your video has saved me calling plumber. I can't thank enough for uploading such informative videos.
Huge respect to you!
Thank you. sanjay.
Thankyou so much for this. This never occurred to me and I was starting to go loopy wondering why it was so bad suddenly. Great guy and so clearly explained videos. !!!!
No problem
Just tried it. Brilliant. Fixed the air lock in 10 secs. Thank you!
No problem Neil.
You have saved me a lot of money as I was going to call a plumber, thank you, it was so simple and job done
No problem.
Thank you so so much - this is by the far the easiest and fastest way to remove an air lock - I had been struggling for 2 hours with various other methods until I found this
You're welcome!
Fantastic advice! Just had an air lock in hot water tap, did as you said in the video and it worked! Thank you 😁
No problem Stephen.
Had to clear it from the lowest tap in the house where the mains water came in. Had to hold it for about a minute, but all the hot taps then flowed. Thanks mate you saved Christmas !
No problem, have a good un.
I just tried your technique and it worked! We were quite stressed as the water tank was splashing and there were droplets on ceiling and dripping on floor. if we called an emergency plumber at this time it would have cost us hundreds of pounds. Thank you so much! ☺☺☺
No problem.
Mate, why didn't I find this brilliant video years ago!!!
I've had a dribbling hot water bath tap since I installed it a few years back, and thought it was because I had fitted the wrong sort of mixer taps. After following the advice in your video, it's shooting out like a bloody hose pipe, amazeballs!
Thanks a lot fella, you've earned me a right load of brownie points, as my wife can finally have a bath instead of a shower 😉😀
No problem, pleased you fixed it ok.
You little ripper! Thanks for this video... been scratching my head for a few days since moving in to my new place. This worked straight away!

Thank you so much, hand over the mixer tap fixed the problem in 10 seconds.
That`s great pleased you sorted it. Al.
Came back from Vacation and though the shower had hot water, neither bathroom or kitchen sink had any hot water. Did these steps on both sinks and it fixed both easily and right away....! Amazing! Kitchen sink has the one, mixer handle; bathroom has the two turning handles... worked regardless...
No plumber this time!
THANK YOU (liking this video!!!!)
Thanks Robin.
No THANK you... put all your fixes and tips in an info book and sell on Amazon for $2 or $3 and get rich! (at least for the first few months before people steal it and resell!) But hey really appreciate the time, saved me a call and $200. :) Publishowl on Facebook... I can help you... (free) make a book! LOL
This has helped me and followed what you did and now the hot water is running again! Thank you very much 😃

No problem Janette.
Thank you very much! a 2 minute job that i thought i would have fork out a lot of money to fix
No problem.
Sir I have disassembled and reassembled my new faucet twenty times called home depot ten called the manufacturer twenty and finally took it out. I had lost all confidence in myself to trouble shoot plumbing problems and had decided I was probably no longer even a carpenter or capable of doing small home electrical projects or fixes. I even made the misses install the new faucet because she was so confident it was my issue. Well it worked great for a couple days so I did have to eat my pride for a bit but then i started to have some company in the confusion canoe. After your video I went straight to the kitchen, she happened to be standing there and I took the faucet sprayer head off, she looked at me like now what the hell are you going to do. I pu my thumb over the hose turned the water on and some air came by before the water, then I turned it off over to other side and on again and off. Put the head back on and walla pressure is back. You have done more than help with my faucet, thank you for taking the time to help us learn here on youtube.
Great story buddy, glad it all worked out ok.
It's just worked for me. You are are amazing because you're not asking for a return.Value in people restored.
Thanks Eileen.
