I woke up one day and realized that I had lost water pressure in my kitchen sink for both hot and cold. I removed the screen and the water miser plastic part and that did nothing to help. I also can only use my rinse hose once. After the initial use, no water comes out again. Thank you for your time. Judy

Fill up a bucket with water.
Close main water valve.
Switch off the water heater.
Open both taps completely and drain.
Clean both taps : there may be sand and stone .
Reinstall hot tap and close.
Ask someone to help you.
Hold another bucket over the completely open cold tap.
Ask the assistant to open and closed the main valve periodically for half a minute.
The water pulsing will loosen all dirt, sand and stone in the pipes and it will end up in the bucket.
Close the main valve.
Reinstall the cold tap.
Open up the main valve.
Open/close the hot tap pulsing.
Try to remove any sand and stone from that line.
Switch on the power to the water heater.

Hey Ramsfanatic:

Any chance you have a name or model number on that faucet? If so, then I may be able to get a cut-sheet that shows the parts you will need to work with.

If not, look online and see if you can find one that looks similar (go to images at any search engine and type in single/double (depends on your model) faucet and see what pops up)... OR post a pic. At the "go advanced" feature at the quick answer box you post the question/answers in.

Let us know what you can... will see what we can do to help from there... Mark
