No water pressure in galley, plenty in bathroom

[KenSanLan]

Today I flushed out the antifreeze, and filled the freshwater tank. Water is flowing normally in bathroom shower and sink, but only trickles in the kitchen, even with faucet screen removed. I also connected directly to city water with the same result. Pump seems to be working fine.
We had a water-heater bypass installed over the winter at Jackson Center - no other changes that we know of. Any suggestions?

I forgot to say - we have a 31' 1985 Excella.

If it's plugged on both the hot and cold position and you're sure the screen/aerator is clean, there must be some gunk in the faucet control. You could take a line loose underneath the faucet to see if water flows, or undo the top of the control and clean it out.

That's what I'm going to do. Thanks - will let you know if it works!

There are two screens. One where the hose connects to the faucet head, and another at the aerator where the water comes out. I would bet that one of them is plugged.

Thanks, we'll try that too. I checked the aerator, didn't know about the one at the faucet head. Will be back at it tomorrow morning.

Problem solved - we think it was air in the line. Turned it on the next morning and it worked fine! However - we then found a leak under the sink - new faucet installed - all is well. Thanks for your help.

Ahh, at last, a simple plumbing fix. The moderators should put a sticky on this thread, because it will never happen again.
