I have a hot dog cart with a 7 gallon potable water system. I have a faucet that has a max of 2.0 gpm. I have cleaned entire system out I have great flow of water from hoses but when I attached the faucet it onlly trickles out. I have to have 1 gpm of flow to pass inspection. Does this have to do with the cartridge as it is very tiny.

If the hoses to the faucet are clear then take the faucet apart and check and clean the inlet ports on the cartridge and check the valve body for any trash that may be in there.. Good luck, To
