I live in a small, two-story house. Recently, the upstairs fixtures (tub/shower, toilet & vanity faucet) water flow has been reduced to a trickle. . Now here's the weird part: the hot water flow to the vanity sink is coming out great. Sometimes, the water flow will pick up to the rest of the fixtures, but then it goes back down to drops. The rest of the house is doing good, except now, my downstairs vanity faucet is down to a trickle also.(which is directly below the upstairs problem) Recent plumbing work done this year: Replaced outside main sewer line, new water softener, new upstairs toilet & new pedestal sink and faucet. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
