TS6 - M70 Low or no flow from spout and/or wand

There are rare occasions when the waterway can become obstructed and restrict the water flow. Some examples:

  • Water supply lines were not properly flushed when installing the faucet
  • Work has been done in your home that disturbed the plumbing
  • Your municipality made water line repairs
  • Your fire department flushed hydrants
  • Construction in your area
  • Your well was stirred up after a hard rain or other disturbance

The most likely location for the obstruction is the waterway between the cartridges.

  • The water supply valves MUST be closed.
  • Remove the cartridges. For assistance in removing and reinstalling the cartridges see: Mixer Cartridge and Diverter Cartridge instructions.
  • Use a length of wire to clear the waterway.
  • Rinse debris from the cartridges before reinstalling by vigorously swishing them in a vessel of water. Rotate the stems in each direction during the process.
