    Low Kitchen /water Pressure - Bad Girl
    The other day I forgot I left the hot water running in the kitchen (maybe at least 20 mins). Now I have low water pressure on both hot and cold water. The temp outside at the time was probably -2 F. I haven't noticed low water pressure anywhere else. The water pressure in the kitchen seems to be about half pressure as normal. I have a single spout head with pull up nozzle for water where you turn it left for hot, right for cold, and center for mix temp. I also have the pull out spritzer where the water comes out. Can you tell me if I have a serious problem requiring a plumber? Please Help!
    Thank you.

    Try cleaning the aerator.

    Sorry for the title of this video, but it gives a pretty good description of what to do.
