    Carl... at all fixtures upstairs or just at the sinks??

    If just at the sinks, may be that the AERATORs are clogged up with debris/sediment (click on attachment: aerator2pdf at bottom left).

    If only at sinks, untwist the aerator clockwise and remove to clean... then turn water on to purge lines of sediment/debris and reinstall the aerator.

    May even decide to replace with new aerators if flow poor after cleaning.

    Let me know more... MARK

    Sorry John... not this time! :cool:

    An aerator twists OUT clockwise (check it out)! But thanks for watching my back! I know you always mean well. Have great night!

    Hey John:

    Don't you think that to this day I don't have to take my hand... put it in the air... and twist both ways to be sure which way is the right way for each application! Each and every time... ;)

    Good night! Mark
