Is it worth it to try and repair/rebuild a kitchen faucet? This faucet has gotten less and less pressure as time goes by. Now it’s just a little better than a trickle, but all the other faucets and showers pressures are still good. I’ve checked for leaks under the cabinet as well as in the basement, it has to be the faucet. TIA
Replace! Looks like something from the 90s faucets…
Have you checked the faucet aerator? Google how to remove. I just cleaned my bathroom faucet and now it flows great.
It’s probably just clogged in the aerator. (The little screen on the spout.)
Sediment in the aerator more than likely and still to answer ur question…no….u can always replace the cartridge inside the faucet for cheaper than buying a new faucet
It could just be a clogged aerator. Should be easy enough to clean/ replace
Agree with the above . But might need a new cartridge.
Take the head and put it in a bucket of hot water with clr over night
Clean your screen/cartridge. I’ve found actual pebbles in mine
Clean the screen but make sure you put all the pieces back the same way. Take pictures of you
Need to. Oh can alway save for a few faucet after you clean Rut screen. It happens on all faucets. They are not hard to change either. Google will show you how
Yea. Should be easy fix. Check filter first at the tip of the faucet. $2 part…if that.
First pull off the water supplies, and see if there’s little screens in the tubing. If so, pull them out with needle nose, and reconnect the water supply. Those screens catch debri, and will slowly plug up.
Dunno why I didn’t think of that. Done it many times on bathroom sinks. Probably because it’s one of them pull out deals and it’s not obvious. I’ll check that when I get home tonight. Thanks again!
