water problems

I recently replaced the check valve and pressure switch on my pump and all is working fine except for my kitchen's water pressure is low but the pressure is good in both of my bathrooms. Any suggestions on what to do to fix this problem.

Hey Smoky,

Have you pulled the aerator off the kitchen faucet spout and cleaned the screens? regards, Tom

I pulled the screen off of the spout and just left it off. I dont know if that's the aerator though.

If after you removed the screen and still haven't any pressure then shut the water off under the counter and open up the faucet and check the inlet ports of the cartridge for crud or trash. Before you replace everything place a pan over the open valve and turn the water back on for a few seconds to flush out the supplies. Let me know what you find. Tom
