HI all

I replaced the shower cartridge and everything is working well in that shower.

In order replace it I tried to shut off the water..there were a couple of valved in the hot water boiler but that didnt work... so I shut the main water supply outside my house and that basically cut all the water supply to the house.

I replaced the Moen cartridge without incident (apart from the fact that it was very hard to take it out) and the shower and everything works fine.

However ONLY the kitchen faucet has a noticeable drop in pressure. Can somebody HELP please???

Thanks in advance

Anytime you mess with home plumbing, sediment and calcium breaks off and settles somewhere else. First try cleaning the screen for the faucet, then checking your supply lines to see if you have full pressure. If so, some of the particles are lodged in your faucet.
