Bathtup Water Pressure Loss
The water pressure in my bathtub has gone down to a trickle. It was fine yesterday but not today. There is very little water coming from the bathtub faucet and the shower head. The pipes make a "gurgling" noise when the water is turned on.
Every other faucet in the house is fine, including the sink located in the same bathroom. What could be the problem? Thanks! David San Antonio, Texas |

Probably some kind of trash got lodged in the faucet, you need to turn off the water at the meter or any other cutoff that you have. Take the faucet apart and see if anything is in it, you might have someone help you by holding something in front of the faucet to make the water go down into the tub. As they are holding that you could turn the water on for just a few seconds, maybe 15, then off. Put things back together and wee if you have done any good. If not post again and tell us what kind of faucet you have.

After the installation of a new hot water tank, we have less pressure which is only noticeable when trying to fill the tub. Any ideas? Thank you.
Here's the deal: Have seen a slow but sure loss of hot water pressure in the five plus years we have been in the house. Water source is a well, so lime and minerals are likely to blame. Pipes are copper. Water is heated through the furnace, a Smith (Westcast) 8 Series boiler-burner unit. We...
Our house is on a slab. We have copper pipes. Just recently and rather abruptly we began to lose water pressure. When we turn on the shower the water pours out for about 10 seconds and then drops off to a near trickle. We have not changed or added any fixtures. The showers are both single handle...
