The water pressure at the bath tub has dropped by one half yet the rest of the houses water pres. is ok WHY ?

Depending on the year your shower valve was made it could be as simple as turning off the water to the house and removing the handles and interior parts and turning the water back on (someone should be in the house and the parts should probably be put in a bag of some sort). Shut off, reassemble. Still a problem call a plumber. If your shower valve has three handles call a plumber.The water pressure at the bath tub has dropped by one half yet the rest of the houses water pres. is ok WHY ?
Could bee the screen or valve modules are clogged.





Often cheap seal kits will rot off and plug stuff up..The water pressure at the bath tub has dropped by one half yet the rest of the houses water pres. is ok WHY ?
If you have a screen at the end of the faucet, remove it and clean out.
I had the same problem and my plumber pal checked it out for me , Removed water facet and found some objects in the path of the water and restricted the water flow, So you might want to check it out , find a plumber good luck
