    Kitchen Faucet no water pressure
    One handle kitchen faucet. No water pressure. Took apart. With cartridge out good flow so purchased new.. Still no flow at all.. Anything else to do. I believe it's a Price Pfisca.. (not sure of spelling) just real upset and frustrated. Any ideas. The spray has water..

    Yep, sure sounds like it may be a plugged aerator. It is located at the end of the spout, it simply unthreads. Let us know what you find.

    I agree with Mygirlsdad and Creahands plugged aerator could reduce the flow, remove the it and clean the screens see the image below, Thanks.

    I agree with these great answers and want to point out one common misconception, your pressure was likely fine all of the time. The volume was reduced to almost nothing by the clogged aerator so it appears to have no pressure but it real is the psi. P.S nice pic John

    Thanks everyone.. However, we removed the aerator turned water on and still no flow so it can not be that.. Anyother suggestions.. :)

    Does your fuacet have a separate spray? If so, do you get flow from that?
