Hello Sr. I have a delta faucet on my kitchen.and is taking about 5 weeks before I start notice low water pressure and check the water pressure undrneath the kitchen cabinet and open the valves and is plenty of water pressure on it. I discconect the hose from the wand and also is water pressure, I replace the wand twice and the problem goes away but
5 weeks later the problem is back ( I cannot keeping on replacing the wand every time they are very expensive) but I cannot get a good answer from delta company.
Thank you.
Carlos.

Instead of replacing the 'wand' just give it a good cleaning, run some water backwards through the wand this should wash out any deposits that are coming out of your water heater and stopping in the wand. The wand also should have a back flow perverter where it connects to the hose, this should also be cleaned. You may have a dip tube, in the water heater, that is deteriorating. To clean this out of the lines will take a lot of flushing of the heater and the hot water lines.

If you think this helps you please rate my answer.

Well thank you for the response but if that were the case that the water heater is going
Bad the problem will exist on the whole house but the problem only is happening
On the kitchen faucet.
Thank you

Don't know exactly what the problem is there yet, and since its only that faucet wand I would tend to lean towards the wand is junk. If you had the old one I would completely take it apart to see what fails in it. Spring,washer.etc.
If it were the other faucets I would suggest water contaminants.

Maybe you have more lime in the water and that effects the wand quicker or more because of a part in there very sensitive to lime or iron, just a thought. Use Lime away to clean that on and see if that makes a difference. If it does then that could support my thought of reaction from the water itself

An in-line water filter may be needed here if heater and other faucets are OK.

See what others think here. Since its going bad now that's the baby I would tear apart to see what may be a defect in manf if it doesn't flush out

Well thank you 21- boat but the problem is that the wand is seal you cannot take a part
The extra filter for that line will make sense although I'm rather go to the bottown of the
Problem and came up with a solution.
Thank You. Carlos
