All of a sudden I have a severely reduced shower flow.. There is ample pressure in all other outlets in the condo including the tub faucet.. Does anyone know what has caused this and what I need to do to fix the problem

Pull the shower head and see if there are some particles of crud that have plugged up the shower head.

A few questions. One handle or three knobs? Both hot and cold affected?
Remove the shower head and turn the shower on. Strong flow? Let me know. Tom

Hi Tom, 3 knobs, both hot and cold I took the shower head off and it appears to have good flow though I do not know what it was beforw, the shower head apears to be clear... Lisa

Hey Lisa,
Most shower heads have a "water saver" located just under the threads, this looks like a rubber washer with holes around the edge. Pry it out and toss it. Now reinstall the shower head and see if the flow isn't better. Good luck, Tom
