Was the pressure OK before you fitted the mixer?
Have you used flexable hose to join the old pipe to the new mixer?

The hoses (if fitted) could be too small a bore to let the hot water flow.

Some mixers will reduce the pressure, they usually state design pressures in the instructions. It's a commom complaint.

Sounds like u got mains pressure mixers.Check with supplier if unsure.U need gravity mixers.
