    Low hot water pressure
    I have a single faucet kitchen fixture(Price-Pfister). The hot water suddenly tonight came out in a trickle. The cold is fine. The dishwasher appears to be working properly.
    What might be the problem? Should I call a plumber?

    Hello Bonniej,

    It sounds like you have the hot port blocked inside your faucet, I am not sure which one is your faucet, open the attached likns and see which one looks like yours, here is what you need to do, close the angle valves under the sink, remove the cartridge, open the hot Shut off valve for a second and see if the water flows, if it does check inside the faucet and clean if there is and debris, do the same for the cold and install the cartidge, if no water with the cartrdge removed, come back and will tell you what to do, Thanks.
