Re: water pressure low??

this was happening to me in my showers and all I had to do was take off the showerheads clean them, ensure the washer was in proper position and I was good.

Something about hardwater buildup. Sometimes you need to replace your showerhead itself.

Good luck.

Try replacing your showerhead. We recently replaced ours with this one: Delta Fluidics Adjustable Showerhead and it gives a much stronger spray.

Ditto to the shower head flush or replacement. This happened to us last year, but just check the water pressure in the rest of the house. If the rest seems fine, then it is probably the shower head itself.
