    could be air, try putting your hand over the outlet and turn the mixer on halfway between hot and cold this will force the mains (which has greater pressure) back up the hot and will push out the air pocket :)

    cover the tap with your hand switch on the hot tap (full on)

    then switch on the cold (full blast) keep it covered for 20 or 30 seconds,

    then switch off the taps remove your hand and you should have a good flow on the hot.

    you may need to do this two or three times.
