Good video, but: back flushing will not remove encrusted lime scale. If you have removed the aerator, boil it for a minute or two in vinegar to remove the scale. Also, I suggest you put the sink plug in before dismantling small parts over it. It gets very complicated when a part goes down the drain.
This wasn't the fix for my low water pressure in my kitchen faucet, but I watched the whole thing in case it was. I really loved how clear and easy this was to follow even if I didn't use this method! 😊
@@AnneAkhila actually it was the way the fixture was sitting in the sink itself. When it was positioned properly no water pressure issue, when it was out of line water pressure issue. My landlord had it fixed so I wish I had more details but best of luck!!
a plumber once came over and after checking everything he told me it was because the water travelled to the house first and then after to this room in the backyard so i gave up thinking the problem was that, Today I was thinking about it that it didnt make sense and literally this first video I watched fixed the problem
Yeah, had this happen to me recently... this seems to be an issue with this type of faucet, but it's an easy fix that will at least last a few months, or a year. My Faucet was an Amazon Wewe. Took me awhile to figure out how to get to the aerator but I managed with just some needle nose plyers. I didnt find this video even while looking for it... it just popped up now after the fact...🤪
Please get your terminology correct, what you had was low flow and not low pressure. You had a restriction in the aerator but you had pressure in the line. The restriction reduced the flow just a FYI.

Do you remember what the cause was? Going through this now!

@@alliecastellarin1428It sounds like it was just the lines below the sink were getting twisted up or kinked when you would move it around.
By far the most informative video on aerator head cleaning, thanks
thank you, that solved my problem, I have better pressure with this simple fix... Thanks for helping mankind...
My faucet had 2 aerators. Took me ages to figure that out. Once I found and cleaned that one out. Boom, Started working. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I did use same tool but I did not press down to loosen thae aerator.
It worked!
I am grateful to you!

Great! I just wanted to atach off the aeretor.
Hi is this a Franke faucet ??
Not sure. I don’t see any markings on it. 🤷♂️
Looks like you "fixed" it by pulling the faucet handle all the way out as opposed to halfway.
Thank you sir. This heiped me out

Fair point, Charles. Thanks for the note.
Charles, why be an a-hole? You must be miserable.
Thanks! This was helpful
