We have low pressure in our kitchen taps. Every other tap has good pressure. We were wondering what would be causing this, and how to fix it.

Remove t5he aerator from the spout. Is there a full stream now? If so remove the flow restricter and clean te screen. Good luck, Tom

Hi Bruin2007:

Best to start by removing the aerator at the end of the spout... see image. This loosens CLOCKWISE. Remove the aerator and then run water WITHOUT aerator in place... better flow now.. If so, clean the parts to the aerator, re-assemble and re-install it and you should be all set.

If that fails to work pop back and let us know...

POSTING ON TOP OF YOU TOM! I'll leave my answer up only because it shows the aerator!
