This ebbing and flowing you refer to, can you be more specific? Do the fluctuations tend to be a few seconds up and a few seconds down, then up and down again and so forth, or is it more a situation where the water pressure if fine for a few hours, then low for a few hours?

Some faucets have normal most of the time while others have low most of the time.

have checked all faucets for debri by cleaning the aerators,
If, after checking the aerators, the faucets still have low flow then you must open up the faucet and clean the seats or inlet ports on the cartridges. Then turn on the water for a minute to flush out the supplies. Good luck, Tom
