Just finished gutting a kitchen wall and put everything back together. Turned on the faucet to had very poor flow. Checked other faucets and they are fine. Pulled aerator, still poor flow. Pulled supply line and pointed into bucket. Flow seemed fine. Reattached supply line and pulled valve stem. Flushed stem and housing and put it all back together. Still poor flow…
I assumed debis from reno clogged something somewhere, but now I am at a loss.
Any ideas?

If it is both hot and cold then it is some place from in the base and up the neck.
If that neck swevils then that means that there are seals at the base and it comes off.
You can try taking the stems out and then blowing back through the spout.
It is possible that there is a manufacturing defect in the base.

A-holes. Hey every group has to have one. And I have been elected to be the one. I should make that my tagline.
I agree with Bill. There are alot of little orifices in a faucet, you'll have to check them all.
Is this an expensive faucet? You may just want to replace it although I understand that would be backing down from a challenge at this stage of the game.:>)
