SOURCE: Very loww water pressure when taking a shower,

It could be debris in the cartridge at the tap itself. Whther 2 cartidges or 1 , it wouldn't be uncommon for those to clog up as well, and it really doesn't take much to cause a decrease in flow. Turn water off to tap(s) and remove handles, then cartridges in behind with proper socket or wrench and inspect for debris inside hole cartridge came out of, as well as the cartridge.

Depending on the model of the valve, it can be as simple as replacing a cartridge, for example in the case of a Moen, or on a Delta replacing the seats and springs, and possibly the control ball. So what kind of valve is it and then I can give you a better idea?

Take the shower head off and see if the pressure is better or the same. If it is the same then you will need too look up-stream for blockage in the water lines. If it is better then replace or clean out the holes in the shower head. It may also have a filter screen before the shower head.

Testimonial: "I wasn't sure if that was the problem since I had just recently put a new shower head on, but it was the problem. Thank you for your help. "

The reason is cause the cartridge is installed upside down, I know this because I just did it and had the same problem, if you look very closely at the cartridge you will see an H and C they will be upside down
