    Water pressure
    What does it mean when I have no hot or cold water pressure in my bathroom sink taps but I do in all my other taps?

    It means that,
    1) your aeratormat be clogged, (take it off and check the screen.)
    2) The inlet ports on the cartridge are clogged, ( Turn the water off, open up the faucet and remove the cartridge and check and clear the inlet ports). **OR**
    3) The supplies may be clogged, ( check the angle stops to be sure they have pressure.

    He meant to write that your AERATOR may be clogged. I have attched a couple images.

    Clean the screen and the mixer... I'm betting that's the issue ;)

    Thanks Mark
    Yes, I meant to say aerator. Don't know how that slipped by. Thanks for the backstop. Tom
