    NO pressure in the washroom.
    Hi. I live in an apartment that has great water pressure, however. I had the water running in the shower, then noticed the pressure was low because the dishwasher was on. I left the shower running, went to the kitchen and turned off the dishwasher. Back in the shower the pressure got lower and lower until it vented some air, and now I have no pressure in the shower or bathroom sink. The pressure in the kitchen is good.

    Does any body know the process to build the pressure back up in the bathroom?
    Thanks for your help, Now I have to ask a computer exspert how to fix a keyboard with soap all over it.

    Is this problem with both hot and cold? Try removing the shower head to see if it makes any improvement. The good news is that you are usually not responsible for plumbing repairs in an apartment building. Do you have a super or manager, call them. Repost your computer question as a new post and Scottgem will likely catch it. I don't think he moniotrs the plumbing questions..
