Low water pressure in kitchen sink
I have a two handle Delta kitchen faucet with a sink spray. Over the weekend we started to fill our pool and noticed that the pressure in the kitchen sink was low to none. This continued once the hose for the pool was shut off... it is only the cold water pressure.. the hot is okay... however the sink spray is also little to no pressure.
All other faucets in the house are okay. I was wondering if there is any relationship to using the outside spicket to fill the pool or is this all just a coincidence. Thank you Jerry |

It is probably not a coincidence. You pulled at lot of water through your main today and maybe some debris came in from the main or even broke loose inside your own pipes. You can skipcleaning the aerator and screens wsince the hot is good. Shut off the water at the stop cock below your sink or shut down the main. Remove the plastic Delta logo from the handle and then remove the handle. Reove the valve stem and inspect and clean. Hold a rag over the valve opening and turn the water back on just for a moment to flush out the line. If this doesn't improve the water come back and we'll take the next step.
