We are stumped... please help. We started noticing what particles coming out of
The faucets. They look like plastic but when you rub them they squish. I had a
Plummer come out and he told us to drain the water heater. We did drain and
Flush it out. All of our faucet work now that we took them apart and took the
White pieces out, except for the one in the bathroom closest to the heater. The
Sink works but the tub barely lets water flow(cold and hot) 2 separate handles).
Also the last couple of days our other bathroom shower seems to be getting
Weaker. Could there be a clog in the pipe that we can't get to. We took a
Compressor and blew air in the pipe to see if we could loosen it but didn't work.
We are really at a loss with this one. PLease help..

What you need to do is shut the water off to the valve and open it up. Check and clear the seat or inlet ports. Before you button up turn the water back on to flush out the supplies. Good luck, Tom
